∞ Artist Statement
“My art is about the power of the healing energies of nature, exploration, and getting outdoors.
A representation of the therapeutic values and beauty that surround us everywhere. Proof that we don’t necessarily have to travel the world to find peace and tranquility. Evidence that we don’t need to spend thousands and thousands of dollars to create unique art.
Each piece of my art has given me the power to combat my mental difficulties. These individual stories I openly share continue to help me live a longer and healthier lifestyle.
Art is medicine; I go to proactivity, paint in my mind, and discover and photograph new places.
To care for the nature of the world. It’s what I love. It’s who I am. So I want my audience to be right there with me and to ask questions.
The art of seeing is an extraordinary event we take for granted. I want to draw attention to others with mental illnesses to get people to care. Hopefully, inspiring and encouraging others to tell a fantastic story.” ∞7∞
