Rebuilding After Fire: Support for Glendale Artist
Donation protected









Last weekend, my studio and workshop were destroyed in a fire. Several paintings and digital sculptures perished along with materials and equipment. Thankfully, myself and my team were not harmed. The fire started in the building next door and spread. It was an extremely hot fire that took hours to put out with 5 different fire departments involved. As you can see, the building is completely destroyed.
If you know me, you know how much I loved my studio and the community in the building which was home to several other businesses which included acrobats, costume makers, and our neon workshop.
I feel so blessed to have the support of my friends and family, the LGBTQ+ community, and my art family. With your support of my fundraiser I can start again and secure a new studio, replace my oil paints, paint brushes, canvases, computer equipment and video projectors. Thank you so much for helping me.
