I want to use my art skills to promote the use of art as a form of communication by getting more people involved in the arts and show them how a picture is worth more than a thousand words.  I see art as my voice.  I use imagery to express my opinions because I feel my voice is never heard.  I want to encourage those who are like me, to embrace their individuality and their freedom of expression.  I want to create original art pieces that will inspire others to use their creativity to get involved, inspire new ideas and be heard.
