Artist Statement

In The Day You are So Busy With Life No Time To Think Everyday Its A Struggle People Judging But know One Knows Facts They Think They Know But No It’s Not That At Night My Mind Unravels Somewhat Goes In To Time Travel Thinking What Can Make My Life So Much Better .Thoughts Going Back In Forth In My Mind Like Its A battle Can You Really Look At Someone & Know Their Exact Story maybe You Can Maybe It Is That Deep But Never Judge A Person By Appearance The Inside Of Them Can Also Be The Same As Yours.
