After years of work as a professional artist, I have come to realize that the value of art is in the way it touches us, deep down inside. 

As a result of my own experience with pain, personal isolation, loneliness, and loss of hope, I have combined my art and my experience as an author to create this website just for you!

I hope your heart will be lifted, and in turn, I hope you will desire and feel equipped to encourage someone else.
