Mary Teraji

The pursuits of life invites its complexities, but the simplicity of life offers equal richness and untold happiness.

Basic tasks and simple asks provide the purest joys and return the deepest answers.

In that sense, Mary is a jewel. Hers is a creative spirit that takes her everywhere and nowhere. It’s the most imperfect, perfect ideal.

@michif_librarian #bookwomenpodcast . . I just discovered your Book Women Podcast and the first episode I listened to was the one you discussed Tanya Tagaq's "Split Tooth." you said someone needed to draw the three of you as Cerberus, the three-headed-book-auntie dog. . . Challenge accepted... . . There were no photos of you on the spotify podcast, so I went tracking you down through LinkedIn and Instagram, and found only the one photo of all three of you. . . I'm sorry if that's stalker-y... And I am truly sorry if you are not at all the one I'm looking for. . . Hope you like the drawing anyway... . .

The other day, a man came into the store with his little daughter. Her teddy was wearing a mask. It caused a really strange flashback, although not really because I was not a child during a pandemic, but it brought back a vivid memories of being a kid with my one very particular toy that came with me everywhere. The one I would always share my french fries with. My mom even made him a vest for Halloween once. . . I saw that little girl's teddy bear and I was sucked into an alternate reality where I'm still a kid, but now I'm trying to navigate a world in the context of Covid. And I'm terrified, but I don't have the language for it and I don't have control, so I project onto some I do understand and obsess over trying to protect my stuffed rabbit from the virus. I panic when I'm we're in public and his mask breaks. I'm probably also holding him at arm's length so we can social distance. And every time an adult tries to convince me that stuffed Animals don't need masks cuz they can't get sick, it shrinks my sphere of safety, because it let's me know that they don't care. . . Be nice to the kids. They are scared in ways they can't tell you. And when the next pandemic comes, we'll be the old ones relying on them to make sound decisions about our safety. . . . #covidart #quarentineart #maskup #quarentinekids #2021 #childrensillustration #childrenstoys #kinderspielzeug #asianamericans #winniethepooh #rabbit

I never get tired of seeing the snow fall. It's one of the most magical things to witness. Almost better than a sunset, because you can't stand in the middle of a sunset while it flutters down on you or make a snow man out of it or hear it make that
I never get tired of seeing the snow fall. It's one of the most magical things to witness. Almost better than a sunset, because you can't stand in the middle of a sunset while it flutters down on you or make a snow man out of it or hear it make that amazing crunch sound under your feet. . . . It's also a little sad, though. As thrilled as I am about it, every time it snows I'm reminded by people that it's not nearly as much as they use to go around here. And it seems to come less and less, while other places are getting more and more . . . #snow #snowrabbit #forestface #snowday #schneezauber #schneehase #art #sureal #kunst #rmfl #therollingarmadillo #maryteraji #covidart #quarentineart #uncertainfuture #klima #realitymaniacsforlife

These were some of my first attempts at using Copic markers. @thenapministry has just made a post that said, "Learn to say no with joy." Somehow, that inspired me to remember those really gaudy rings we use to get in the coin machines for 2
These were some of my first attempts at using Copic markers. @thenapministry has just made a post that said, "Learn to say no with joy." Somehow, that inspired me to remember those really gaudy rings we use to get in the coin machines for 25¢, the ones with different shaped, different colored plastic gems framed by aluminum rheinstones. I use to feel like million bucks with those. Respect your inner child, the one draped in plastic gems and still believes she can do anything.

What a horrible birthday surprise... . . My cousin tested positive for Covid. . . I know calling on us, the every day people, to be responsible for the outcome of this pandemic is bullshit, but I think it's pretty obvious that those with the power to make realistic changes aren't interested in saving our lives. The best we have is each other. . . It sux not seeing family. It sux not having friends. It sux not having gifts at Christmas, especially for the kids. It sux not being able to do anything other than work and binge watch TV. But if you're not dead, you're doing okay and you can survive it. Health care workers haven't seen anyone except dying patients all year, and will most likely not even have Christmas day off let alone be safe enough to see family. . . Be dafe everyone.

The Creative

Mary Teraji

Like many true artists, Mary’s heart speaks through her art, whether as a video editor, audio designer, artist or human being.

Art is her alchemy and her therapy. It allows her to address any condition or struggle - to manipulate it, to nullify it or to reason with it.

She’s assembling her life puzzle to offer herself enlightenment and hopes it may help others, and only then might she leave this earth happy.
