Tonight's Art made the fridge! Thank you Lucie for teaching us how to do continuous line portraits and how to convey what we see in the mirror. With youth struggling, sometimes it is hard to look in the mirror but just know you are beautifully made!

Help find Emma!

A note from her mother's Nextdoor post in comments

💚💚💚"On November 17th, 2005, at the age of 18, T.J. Whitehead took his own life after battling drug and alcohol addiction for the majority of his adolescent life." Today, we remember you and we continue advocacy for youth struggling with mental health. 💚💚💚

At age 17, she was rejected from college.

At age 25, her mother died from disease.

At age 26, she suffered a miscarriage.

At age 27, she got married.

Her husband abused her. Despite this, her daughter was born.
At age 28, she got divorced and was diagnosed with severe depression.

At age 29, she was a single mother living on welfare.

At age 30, she didn't want to be on this earth.

But, she directed all her passion into doing the one thing she could do better than anyone else.

And that was writing.

At age 31, she finally published her first book.

At age 35, she had released 4 books, and was named Author of the Year.

At age 42, she sold 11 million copies of her new book, on the first day of release.

This woman is J.K. Rowling. Remember how she considered su***de at age 30?

Today, Harry Potter is a global brand worth more than $15 billion dollars.

Never give up. Believe in yourself. Be passionate. Work hard. It’s never too late. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
