"I have been very involved with the community throughout the years, by organizing the Great Whiteaker Clean Up and helping with the Whiteaker Block Party. I like to think my paintings and the space I create evoke a sense of joy and happiness. I use a lot of bright contrasting colors, and I like to use a lot of shapes and patterns in my work. The most common compliment I receive is that people enjoy my use of color!"
