Sporadic Moments

This piece is the solution to the prior piece. The solution is only temporary because there is no real cure for depression. The emotional abuse victims can ride the roller coaster ride, full of ups and downs. There is always going to be a part of the victim that is dipped into depression, but if he/she continues to follow his/her hearts, there will be "Sporadic Moments" of bliss to get them through.

$500.00 or $900.00 for both pain and solution.

Scarred For Life

The First pieces is called,  "Scarred for life". Emotional abuse victims may acquire depression in the future or in their current state of being. Depression takes hold of its victims. It controls their thoughts negatively and makes them feel lost. I wanted this painting to represent the feeling of being in a black hole and having no real way to escape. The feeling will supersede all others that may have been acquired throughout life. It will never truly go away.

$500.00 or $900.00 for both pain and solution.

Altered Book Sculpture:

               The book that I altered was pieced together from three book covers. I used cut paper for the pages, and the rest of the materials are: one blade, fingernail polish, black and gold acrylic paint, tape, band aids, string, and wax. This book was inspired by someone who had taken the breath from their own lungs. Life is precious and emotions are easily malleable. I have been distributing the poem written in the middle of the book, in the places where I have been. I wrote this poem long ago during a student leader camp I was associated with. In this camp, we all came together and shared stories that touched everyone's hearts. We were trying to figure out a cure for bullying because too many students were committing suicide due to it. I feel that this book will generate an abundance of thoughts and will provoke some good intentions. (hopefully).
