To hear about the devastation in Sub-Saharan Africa caused by HIV/AIDS leaves one with a heavy heart and a sense of disbelief. How can we truly understand its enormity? There is nothing comparable in our personal lives or in the history of mankind. Rendering portraits allows me to put a face to the disease; to make it real and pressing and in urgent need of action.
I am part of a movement in Canada that is doing everything it can to help those who, because of political, social and economic reasons are struggling to survive: the women and children of Africa.
I use my drawings to help raise funds and awareness of these precious human lives.
