Brenda WirthmanI have been an artist for over 30 years, I took every art class offered at Copper Mountain College in Joshua Tree, California. The love of things that are quirky and has the potential to tell a story drives me creatively, and surrounding myself with nique helps to keep my creativity flowing through my hands to my brush. I decided to work on this project with the author because like with my art telling stories, I believe everyone should be able to tell their own stories. The pride I felt with my long time family friend telling her story that was hard to tell drew me in to work on this project with her.
