Portraiture has always been a primary subject in my art practice and Karen is a testament to the idea of artistic intimacy and eternal beauty. Breast cancer takes so much away.

They have not lost their grace and aren't just an event we care about one time a year. Karen is someone and her portrait is a story meant for others to see.
