Art has always been a part of my life. It is an escape for me and the reason why I believe imagination exists. I believe that it helps people define themselves without having to, verbally. Its people's escape from the world around them and help free them of their tough realities. Art can help people open their eyes to the world around just by an artist using a darker paint pallet, lathering it in negative saturation. Art shows the strengths of society and reminds us of the good old days when art was the only motion picture that people had. It is the foundation of people's imagination and their most personal thoughts, all on a piece of paper displayed for whoever to see.

  Ever since I can remember I've always been found with a pencil and some old piece of paper sketching my thoughts. Whatever I feel or am going through, comes out in my paintings or sketches.  For the longest time that was my way of communication because I was always the shy kid in class and the art rooms were my quiet escape.

As for my future, art will always be a part of it whether it's just will be my hobby or a side job from my career. No matter where I am in life I will always find an excuse to paint. Any opportunity I can get I will always try to incorporate art into my life. It has been my passion since I was a little girl and the comfort that I had to get through the toughest of times. I hope to someday  inspire someone around me to incorporate art into their lives to use it as a stepping stool for life as I have.
