Finding Real Strength & Healing in Vulnerability.
Sharing Mental Health Awareness Art to breakdown Stereotypes, Stigmas & Silence.
As a neurodivergent artist with over 40 years of mental health challenges, I’m now using my creativity with Mental Health Awareness Art as an aid in healing minds, for better overall lives.
I have discovered that sharing my challenging experiences facilitates understanding with others in ways nothing else can. This website is part of the journey.
It’s taken four decades to understand how deeply fear, anxiety, and depression have impacted, and run, my life.
What I now know is, my clarity of self is crystal.
This trio of thieves robbed numerous opportunities presented before me over those decades. I turned down chances based on fiction fed to me over time.
That’s why sharing Mental Health Awareness Art is personally meaningful. And it is deeply cathartic to be creative and challenge my fear of sharing myself with others.
The Mental Health Awareness Art, website, blog, and YouTube videos all signify a 180º turn from my typical ways of being in the world—a total about face.
It’s a step outside of a cocoon of masks. These were masks created and maintained to hide the true emptiness inside.
See the Mental Health Awareness Art, and sign up for email alerts to know about new art. Until then, I am grateful for your visit.
Be real & Be well.
