i would like to
thank Delta for their generous support to help me continue to be
able to make these art pieces with the donation of equipment
My Charity Work
As the
reason i got into art was to get my mind off my pain , I have
created thousands of pieces of art that i have donated to different
causes. As a result I was very fortunate to have received
Lieutenant Governors Vice Regal Award and The Community Service
Award for Winnipeg here are some of those moments
