The Badge…
In November of 2020 I submitted a badge design for my local police department. They were having a contest best design wins!!! I thought to my self what a wonderful opportunity to connect with my community and show my talent. Little did I know this small choice would send a chain reaction into my whole life… I won!!!! (It was my design and another artist named Emily Naggys designed put into one) and you might be thinking Wow that’s incredible but wait it gets even better. In May of 2025 Officer Tom reached out to me and asked if I could paint the badge design on a sign for the police station. Of course I said yes! I poured my heart and soul into a beautiful master piece. I am so truly honored to have been the artist selected for this. Not only did I help create it but it will now remain on the front of the police station. I love being connected with my community it truly is a whole other feeling. Art is such a creative way to give back at little to no cost !
