Profile
I am a Breast Cancer Survivor and proceeds of all sales will be donated to Breast Cancer Reserch.
I live in Douglasville, Ga with my husband and son. Our daughter is attending the University of Alabama. I am a substitute teacher and an acrylic artist. I love the outdoors and just started taking more photos. I am a devoted advocate of Breast Cancer Awareness. I am on the committee for our local Relay for Life, Chair for the anual Breast Cancer Survivors and Awareness Feastival of Ga., I walk and run in the local Breast cancer Races. I have also designed a special pin to signify and honor Cancer Survivors. ALL proceeds from the sale of my work go to the American Cancer Society and Breast Cancer Research.
God Bless you and ..
