You are not alone, by far. 💙“This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear.” - Toni Morrison. #kidlit #illustration #art #artist #artists #fight #lgbtqrights #womensrights #kindness #tolerance #freedom
