Artist Statement: Just like mountains, life has our ups and downs. There is no straight path to the top. It’s a bumpy road to the top. Being at the lowest point of your life mentally is being at the bottom of the mountain. It’s cold, lonely and depressing. My road back to the top was hard. there definitely have been some bumps along the way, sometimes I fell back down. Even then, I still pushed through the obstacles, the problems and the thoughts. Eventually, I hit the top. I’ma keep going up, sky’s the limit
