This acrylic painting is painted on hardboard. It was painted to represent SUDEP - Seizures Unexplained Death from Epilepsy. I painted this from the words to a song titled "Who'd You Be Today" written and sung by Kenny Chesney. It told a story about a father talking to his son who died as a child. I picked this painting for several reasons. I myself have lived with epilepsy and seizures since I was a child due to a car accident. The words spoke loudly to me due to the fact that my own son died at age eight from seizures in his sleep. The painting is of myself over my son's grave, the roses were painted purple which is the chosen color for epilepsy every March, and November is the epilepsy awareness month. It is one of eleven paintings that was used to raise money for the research for epilepsy. These two paintings will be in an art show in California.

Art has been the one thing that I have enjoyed either for businesses, individuals, or just for the joy of expressing my heart and talent on canvas. One of my greatest opportunities has been working with children both in schools and individually. It is sharing a part of myself that every artist expresses into his art itself.
