A lot of my work deals with my personal experiences. Especially being in a wheelchair. I’ve had Cerebral Palsy since birth. I’ve known the wheelchair my whole life. While I can walk some, I will always have to use one. Since there isn’t a lot of things out there that address the disability. I’ve decided to create pieces that represent this issue. These photos however are somewhat different than some of my original pieces. Despite being in a wheelchair and dealing with how the world and America in general perceive me, I have my love for God to keep me strong in all circumstances. My Christian Faith is very important to me. My relationship with God has gotten me through some difficult times. I want people to see me as a human being, not my wheelchair. My goal with each piece that I create regarding the wheelchair and the disability, is to inspire, give hope and over all understanding of persons with disabilities.
