From the artist:
”As a DJ, mother of an energetic 1 year old boy, extrovert & social butterfly, I want to show you that art can be such a fun & EXCITING thing to be involved in!

You will be able to purchase ANY of the pieces to take home with you by paying in full or set up payments with a deposit.

My life's purpose is to use my art & life experiences to bring joy, happiness, meaning, clearer vision & inspiration into as many lives as I can!! This is a new step in my art career of connecting with locals & getting to know you guys!

I will be featuring another local extremely talented artist! She is an inspiring, kind, selfless, & driven individual who I have had the pleasure of growing close to & learning a new art style from! She will have some of her artwork also available to purchase!! Come & meet her!

The next year is not promised! The next month is not promised! The next 24 hours are not promised! The next 60 seconds are not promised!

Why did I choose this specific date & the title "I CHERISH YOU"?? Well, I gave my baby sister (who was 8 years old at the time) a goodnight kiss & told her that I love her...just to get woken up the next morning getting told that she had stopped breathing in her sleep.

February 20th marks the 5th year anniversary of the night I gave my last words to my angel of a baby sister without even realizing it. From that day forward, I strive to live my life like I may not be given another 24 hours with the people in my life. That situation woke me up from this dream of waiting around for that perfect moment, the perfect opportunity, the perfect person & taught me to go after what I love & make those moment happen myself!

For this show, I used the colors silver & gold (to symbolize richness, wealth & value..not the money kind, but the quality of your relationships & friendships), white (to symbolize light..be the light for those around you), grey (to represent balance), blue (to represent healing) & pink (to represent love & also for my baby sister because that was her favorite color).

As you look at these pieces, I hope you are reminded of all of the incredible memories & people that you have in your life. Build relationships & friendships that have quality & value, that encourage you to chase your goals! Instead of telling people "I love you" (which can have a thousands different meanings), show them with your actions... "I CHERISH YOU"!”
