Radiate Joy

“Radiate Joy” is a love letter to the LGBTQIA+ community — to the softness, the defiance, the chosen families, the glitter, the grief, and the glow. These little horned angels aren’t performing happiness; they’re beaming it out of their skin like a truth they refused to dim. Their eyes are bright, their poses tender, and the rainbows behind them aren’t decoration — they’re protection. They’re a reminder that queer joy isn’t fragile. It’s resilient. It’s revolutionary. And it survives because people carry each other through the storms.

This series is my way of honoring that light. The light that refuses shame. The light that survived the cruelty of a world still catching up. The light of queer kids and queer adults who deserve to take up space in every color imaginable. These characters radiate joy for anyone who has ever felt different, hidden, erased, or unsafe. And in full mom form, I’m here cheering loudly for every single person who’s still learning that they’re allowed to shine — not in spite of who they are, but because of it.
