People's Stories

Everybody has a story to tell.  Getting their story in paint is a challenge that is very rewarding when it works out well.  All of these paintings had their origin in something that happened in these individual's lives.  But these are not just their stories, they may be yours as well.  The specifics will be different but the underlying experiences - of vulnerability, hard work, difficult communications, joy, new life - are common to us all.
