“I was not an artist until I broke my neck in a high school wrestling match and was paralyzed from the neck down. Being a quadriplegic, I decided not to dwell on what I couldn’t do, but to explore what I could do. I taught myself to draw and paint by mouth. To overcome my limited reach, I learned to draw upside down and sideways to create the intricate detail that’s become my style. I love wildlife and their beauty inspires me every day”.
