I started doing art for therapy after my mother passed away, and I was grieving her death. My therapist encouraged me to have an outlet, and writing didn't make me feel better. Listening to music made me feel even worse. He suggested trying to draw.

I drew a little in high school and never got any recognition for it. But I decided to give my therapist's suggestion a try, just to feel better. One drawing became five, five became 10, and 10 became 20. And now 20 is 30.

I had a friend who said, “What are you going to do with all of your art?” and I said I didn't know. They encouraged me to sell it.

I created the art for my own healing process. So, when doing the art, I had no intention of ever selling it. It was purely medicinal in purpose.

Despite this, my friend informed me that she was giving my number to an art gallery. That gallery has allowed me to have my first art show. I am so proud that I have the opportunity to show my creations.

They actually helped and continue to help me heal and get to the point of acceptance of not only my mother’s but also my father's death and other situations that have happened in my life.

This art has actually helped me get to a point of acceptance of the very deep-rooted losses in my life.

My sincere hope is that my art can touch you as well.

The simplest things can bring you to a point where you realize life is okay, despite the pain.
