The Rare Artist Award for Rare Disease Week on Capitol Hill

Winning the Rare Artist Award was an unforgettable experience and the first time my art was really recognized like this! This award is offered by the Everylife Foundation every year to a select few artists with rare conditions and I was honored to be selected in 2019.
