My Story: Learning to FLY

There have been times in my life when I've felt like a plastic bag in a wind storm; flying out of control and at the mercy of some force outside myself.

Creating art has helped me to focus and find calm in those moments so that I can guide myself through any storm life throws my way.

I believe that perfect is boring.
I believe that everyone has the ability to create any life that they imagine.
I believe there is beauty and magic all around us.
I believe in YOU.
