I have been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. I was diagnosed 31 years ago. I take medicine to help my nerves and I have a strong family support system. I am a Christian and God has been a great inspiration and encouragement in my life.
 
My art piece is based on God's love for us and the calm after the flood. I have many artists in my family that have helped inspire me and encouraged my artistic abilities. Art is a great coping skill and relaxation technique to use.
