WHAT ROLE DOES ART PLAY IN YOUR LIFE?
Art is my outlet, my therapy and one of my ways to support myself. I love to get lost in a piece, and the joy it brings to give someone the gift of art. I am just always inspired by Jehovah God, our Creator, and the best artist of all.
IDENTITY STATEMENT
I see myself as a work in progress, and that is how I hope to be seen by others. My life, like many of ours, has not been an easy one. However, when someone took time to teach me to purpose of life, God’s plan for the future, and how we can have a happy life in the meantime, a transformation occurred. Now I am peaceful and joyful and look forward to the future with excited anticipation. The bonds of prison and addiction will never hold me again.

INSPIRATION
My inspiration for this piece was the before of Prince from years ago, black and white, nostalgic and from another lifetime. The “before” of his life.

INSPIRATION
My inspiration for this piece is after Prince met Brother Larry Graham and started studying the Bible, eventually becoming one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. He finally found his purpose and happy hope for the future. His “after” life became vibrant and alive with color.
Justice?
23.5 x 17.5 / 31 x 25 framed
Medium: Mixed Media
The total lack of justice all throughout history.
Chief Wolf Robe
18 x 12 / 19.5 x 13.5 framed
Medium: Pen and ink with acrylic paint
Chief Wolf Robe pictures the people, both in history and in our day, who knew no justice. They lived and died, loved and fought, enjoyed moments of peace against the struggle that is this corrupt world. Did they have hope for a better future? Did they believe in the Creator and Great Spirit would one day bless the earth and make the ground a just and happy place where we all dwell in peace, no matter what tribe, nation, people or tongue? (Rev7:) Did they dream of a time when death, mourning, outcry and even tears would be a thing of the past? (Rev21:4) What would they tell us about how we invest our time and what things are truly most important in life? (1John 2:15-17)
