I write with sad relief to tell you that my dad Ru

I write with sad relief to tell you that my dad Russell Ries breathed his last yesterday. His cancer had spread to his lungs and his health declined rapidly. He’d begun hospice care, for which we are thankful. My mom was with him when he died. // We got to see him and our family over the Christmas holiday and I am so grateful for that time. // We are ok but sad. Thank you your condolences and for the offers to do things for us. If you’d like to, here are things you can do to honor my dad: 1) Read up on something you’ve always wondered about. 2) Pull a delightful prank on someone you love. // We are fortunate to be surrounded, supported, and loved by so many of you all. I am grateful for your presence in our lives. As I am for that of William Russell Ries.

One more painting to ring in November: artists and siblings @talluquinn and @royschuyler. Here right after he and her dad shaved her head for upcoming treatments of her glioblastoma multiforme. Tallu’s beautiful and urgent writings (about food, justice, and community) and her visionary leadership at @thenashvillefoodproject are an inspiration to me. Her work and being remind me to do the work am called to do, and to create joy and seek justice in it. Thank you Tallu!

If you’re able, you likely already did vote. If you’re voting today, I hope it’s joyful and smooth. Whether we witness the peaceful transfer of power or not: the work continues. Whatever good work you are called to do, it remains, calling you. Joe Biden is not coming to save us. No one is. The work continues.
.
I hope we all find peace, beauty, and comfort today. And that we take the White House and the Senate. Amen.

P.S. DM me your address if you’d like one of these skull prints. 💙💀❤️
