Acrylic
Inspiration:
To see beautiful, priceless beauty in front of you and you not knowing it
What role does art play in your life?
Art has been my only true companion
Justice statement:
Emptiness is a void left unfulfilled. Sorrow has been my only friend. And the coffee's not that bad. No one can truly know anyone else, unless they talk to one another. Surprise me - reach out - let's talk

I’m not what others write of me, I’m not what images depict of me. Unless you are to sit and get to know me through unbiased eyes and ears, my identity can be obscured and never truly known. I don’t see myself. I’m not sure I care how I’m seen. Simply put, there is not enough paper to express/tell the stories of me. If someone really wanted to know me, pull up a chair, we’ll have some coffee and chat. You have a wonderful day. Sincerely, Me.

I was trying to picture myself as the viewer, something reflective, but in constant motion. Ripples of water from a central source.
