“I create to preserve life’s experiences and memories of places I have been.”

“I think my art came about as a blessing in disguise.”

Ronnie discovered his artistic talent when a friend suggested he attend a healing art class for people with chronic illness. With great hesitation he decided to give the class a try. “From that first day, my life changed forever.” Painting had a positive effect on Ronnie. It allowed him to actively ease his mental state during treatment for his illnesses. Ronnie has now been cancer-free for over eight years.

Through our partnership with ArtLifting, a benefits corporation, 20% of each candle sold in this collection supports artists impacted by homelessness or disabilities. A portion of this goes directly to Ronnie so he can continue creating.
