I have been through a lot. More than most people can handle. I heal myself through art and I want to raise money to be able to help struggling artist like me, live.  Artist have a passion that most people can't see. We feel like we have to tell our story through, paintings, words, sculpture, movies, and music.  We have a drive to share and be compassionate. We can not stand seeing other people in pain.  So for me, I paint.  I paint and I tell people my story. I tell them about the abuse and my daughter passing away due to the abuse. I paint because the people abusing people need to heal. If we were taught how to heal ourselves, there would be less angry people our here. People just trying to survive. I am on of these people just trying to survive.  I have made it to the other side of that and now I want nothing more but to help anyone dealing with pain. Unimaginable, horrible, searing pain in your soul that needs to heal. I want to show people how I have healed through eastern medicine and painting.  I want to eventually have a non-profit. I want to see out art from the most broken people and help them tell their story so that they can finally live. The world needs to change. If people knew how to govern themselves., It would. Everyone is worried about what everyone else is doing. When we govern ourselves it won't matter.  I am super driven. I made it after my stroke. I just don't want to go back.  I want to keep moving forward and keep painting. My goal is to be able to keep painting so that I can keep telling people what I am learning. My story needs to be a movie because it is epic.
