Always striving to express all the emotions raging and whirling inside of me, I have created my unique art as long as I have memory. I was finally diagnosed as being Bipolar after 23 years of active addiction, the pain of molestation, rape, incarceration and domestic violence, and the derision of family and friends. I am now 18 years clean and sober, and have been successfully caring for my illness thru Mental Health Counselling and HUGE Effort and DESIRE to live successfully as an artist. I want my art to reach those who have misunderstood and stigmatized those who are like me. I am now able to stand up and let you see who I really am, and this is my gift.
