Heartbroken
2025
36 × 48 inches
Mixed media on canvas
Created from a deeply personal experience, Heartbroken expresses the fear, grief, and helplessness of watching a child struggle. A figure reaches upward amid tangled lines, vivid color, and the plea, “Let me out of this hell.”
The painting reflects a painful turning point in my son’s high school years, when I made the difficult decision to send him to a Christian boarding school. It was a decision that broke my heart and ultimately helped save him. This work holds both the anguish of that moment and the fierce love behind it.
