Before my accident, I had a passion for art. I was pretty good but had a lot to learn. When the accident happened, the results of the injury also paralyzed my hands. All I wanted to do was create art, but I could barely hold a pencil. Through years of practice I have learned new techniques of writing, drawing, and painting!

This semester at NKU, I had to take an oil painting class. It was a new challenge because I was not comfortable with the medium. I learned to mix color`s, blend, and so much more. I have grown to enjoy it! With that being said, I wanted to share with you some of my work. I hope you are impressed!
