I am broken. In the spring of 2008 I walked the streets of Sadr City in Baghdad, Iraq. I walked at the head of a parade of American and Iraqi soldiers 1,000 strong (a term referred to, in the Army, as walking point). Along that route I encountered an improvised explosive device that took both of my legs, my left arm, the sight from my left eye and all the hearing from both ears. But broken, to me, does not mean useless. Broken does not even mean less than I was before.

My artistic journey began in my childhood, in the scenic landscapes of Arizona, where a profound love for creative expression took root. Over the years, I have cultivated my artistic interests, primarily focusing on photography as my preferred medium, while also having a big appreciation for drawing.

I view all art as symbols - the meaning of which is as unique as each viewer. Facial expressions are a very powerful form of communication - sometimes even more powerful than words. For this reason, expressive portrait drawings and paintings are my favorite form of art.
