Art is the voice of my soul. It expresses what words cannot. There is beauty in everything. Life itself is art, just different perceptions.

How can I pick a favorite when ive yet to try them all. In life I enjoy learning new things. I love to create. That is what life is about. Most of my work currently is painting, but I carve antler, I write, I design. I dream. My happiness is creating in itself. I see the mountains and I think of all the destruction that had to happen to make those mountains the beautiful site I see before me. I see, so I create. I have no favorite
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration everywhere and in everything. Life's moments, whether through pain or suffering, love and compassion. One thing thats always there even if we can't see it is hope. Hope is with us always
What would you do with $25,000?I would buy a small piece of land and start my Art Center, Art of Mind Soul. An art gallery/charity/art therapy. For those who have suffered loss, abuse or who need to express what they cant say. A place I can show people how to turn their darkness into light. Art saved me..it gave me a way to express my pain and trauma in a ways that words couldnt and I would like to share that with others who are trying to heal. To offer a way for many to have a voice when they feel they dont have one.
