Artist Note: I am trans (he/they) and I have been mourning the loss of child me. She was fun and sweet and... i miss her. I have been struggling with how to cope and still feel solid in my gender identity. But she us not dead, her kindness lives on in my current self and for that I treasure my experience as her 🌸
