Thank you CBC, thank you to Leonora Gregory-Collura, Charlie Collura and all the volunteers who help make the International Naturally Autistic Achievement Awards happen and to my friends and community who helped me go to Scotland to receive the award and be Canadas Ambassador. Autism is a serious disability but in my case it helps me paint and thats what I do. Thanks to Aunt Margaret Rupert who saw me as an artist at age 8 and taught me to use oil paints and thanks to Jenny Griffin my Mum and my Dad who is passed on but spent thousands in paint and canvass to train an artist. I try to pay it forward.
