My parents are from Texas and fell deep in love. They showed that with three kids and one accident and still remind me! Maybe they didn't realize how much it cost to feed a family of 6. So, we ended up working in the fields to survive and eat. The fields never paid well but for a six year old it wasn't bad! You probably see any art pieces of picking berries, cherries, apples, pears, strawberries. Although I have won contests of detailed bowls of fruit.

My parents made poverty work for me. My entertainment was pen and paper because it was cheap. It ended up molding and helping me craft my passion. That passion meant digging through of reams of recycled boxes to find a clean sheet of paper without print on the back. Its funny looking back at some of my drawings. I remember thinking at age 7 that the best score was a watermarked sheet. Now, I see those same drawings and they where on shit watermarked paper.

Fast Forward...
