BE MINE

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! Traditionally, of course this is a day to celebrate love with chocolates in all forms with the one or ones we love. Personally however, I am not a chocolate lover. I never have been and nor will I ever be.

But believe me, there are many sweet substitutes to waxing chocolate candies on this special day as we celebrate love. In my heart of hearts, I would love the indulgence of some strawberry cake with pink icing, a raspberry dessert or a warm heart-shaped doughnut, freshly baked and covered with a sugary translucent glaze. An espresso or cappuccino on the side would be divine too! And I would love to share this experience in a new place with my husband Bryan of 32 years, in a small cozy cafe somewhere.....on a snow day.

Much love to all of our faithful readers and have a Happy Valentines Day XOXO.

Tina Folks

“I remember a time back in elementary school when my art teacher asked us to raise our hand if we enjoyed making things. Well….my hand is still up!”

Tina Folks is a full time creative; ceramic artist, illustrator, and gardener who also enjoys cooking and creative writing. Together with her husband Bryan, she also shares a decorative painting, wallpaper and tile business called Fee Fi Faux, Inc. which serves the residential market on Eastern Long Island.

Since 2000, Tina has stayed connected to her local community co-producing several public art projects. Notably, “We are All Connected,” a community fire ceremony in 2014, held at East End Arts in Riverhead, and in 2017 the MAKE YOUR MARK community tiled wall project, permanently installed at Gallery North in Setauket.

Most recently though, Tina has become a contributor to thehummingbirdpost. Her work captures a poignancy and whimsy of everyday life through her sketches and commentary. Currently, Tina lives in Patchogue with her husband and their five cats.
