HELPING CHILDREN

I feel very strongly that my art should be for a purpose. That it should do something good for others. That it should elevate lives. 

Of course, art is a business and my livelihood, but I must give back through my art for it to be complete.

Personally, I became a parent at a time in my life when I was not living the best version of myself. I struggled with being a good parent, but regardless, children have always been special to me. I love their innocence, curiosity, energy, and ability to just go for it without overthinking things. Children have the gift to make play an art form - something I seek to do for the rest of my life.

I wish to use some of my art to support helping children:

• Abused/Orphaned/Trafficked 
• Children in poverty.
• Children facing grave medical circumstances.
• Disadvantaged children.
• Children seeking faith in God.

I hope to reach as many children as possible with my art. Currently, I am supporting organizations that serve children as my primary focus along with other causes I support. I am honored to walk alongside these groups and expand my giving as my art business grows. I currently donate 10% of my art sales to organizations such as these and more. So when you purchase my art you are helping more than me, the artist. You are supporting our communities future. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

SUPPORT FOR THOSE SERVING US

In addition to supporting children's causes, I am also honored to contribute to organizations that help our service professionals from the armed forces, law enforcement, emergency medical, and first responders. I will continue to use my art for fundraising and other works that support these fearless people who protect us.
