Kris's Art Portfolio

Art has always been a way for me to creatively express myself and communicate in a way I can't otherwise. Having been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, PTSD, Depression, Progressive Neuromuscular Disorder, and Autoimmune Disease; this creative expression and outlet has been a way for me to both cope and manage my illnesses and differing abilities. In particular, as I have struggled with self injury for over two decades; engaging in this creative outlet has helped me in my path to recovery and moving towards living my best life. I am always challenging myself through pushing the artistic limits and boundaries while trying new techniques and continually improving on the old. This has especially been the case as my physical conditions progress and change how I am able to use my hands to create the way I used to. I have set up my art portfolio as a series of galleries which have been setup in a way to best showcase my artwork across the years, what it means, and its special place within my heart.
