The painting MARILYN MONROE was released on September 20, 2019. Marilyn, you have been an inspiration in my life’s calling. I use your words, your story, and your purpose to fulfill my destiny. I have always looked up to you for guidance and to sustain my drive. To resemble a vague reflection of your image would be an honor. I have never been in tune or inspired by another in my walk of life. I am touched by your grace, wisdom, and power. Your complexity was misunderstood by so many; an experience which I know all too well. I stand before the world and this audience, not only for myself but also for you. Hidden behind beauty and a smile, this painting represents both of our pain we have masked so well. You are forever eternal. "I restore myself when I'm alone." - Marilyn Monroe
