also I live sober without drugs and alcohol raised by my conservative Chirstian mother turned out more Christian also do to life lessons and expenses but I am independent in my views of anything political issues I love god and believe there are many path to him and lesions and things humanity and etc. can learn from the GOD that have v to teach me some valuable lessons Unfortunately the democratic and liberal black community would call me racist for not going with or supporting there racism and would call me racist for being white not totally agreeing with leftist agenda are the only ones that don't seem to really open and support interracial relationships and or couples or white people for that matter I have tried to talk to two cultural groups and show my support for BLM although there somethings with DEI and critical race theory that have caused issues and etc. that have created issues and misunderstandings of my support of the black community and interracial love no hate or racism here ! in fact i support my black fellow and lady conservatives I am also against censorship and cancel culture and believe in free speech and speaking your mind I do a lot of my art things with self-thought self-expression and out pocket cost so I always advancing and can always use room for improvement this page was place and a way to show and Express my artistic talents which help me with my mental health struggles its grown to a little more sense then and can always improve maybe day with partner or manager as I run most of by myself but I hope you enjoy and to do business or display for you soon always open to local buyers and those looking for maybe an art work donation to their Chairty and cause
