LOVE ERASES THE MASKS WE HIDE BEHIND
My Goal:
To erase the harmful stigma which revolves around the Disability Community. The goal is to expand my network and expand my online store, selling my artwork to bring together an empowered community that feels free to be themselves: unmasked. Everyone deserves a chance regardless of labels.
Art is a powerful vehicle that enables me to connect with myself and others on multiple levels.
