What's REALLY Going ON Volume 1, Issue #5 | Page 6

FEATURED FAN ART Liss Silverwing us all to do. Help those in need and I am beginning to grasp that by my painting I can impress people's lives in more ways. So in a nutshell this is what I'm focusing on right now ... I have to say that art and jewelry that I make are the main reason for me to survive and feed my family. Most of what I earn goes into bills, food and clothes for my 5 year old son. But in my heart I feel I can help more with all I get from the selling of my work. Just seems fair to me at this point in my life to help others in return. It's what Michael did all his life. Feel free to contact me if you want to know more of my story or just connect with me Little by little painting began to be and mean more in my life. I began making small pendants and trinkets and eventually I came to sell them online, then I started painting Michael inspired pendants, and those true fans that see them love them, they felt it and they kept asking me to paint for them, and one day one of these fans asked me if I was willing for a challenge. I have never painted a canvas before but I was so willing to try. It was like my welcome into a "real" artist world. My first Michael Jackson painting was such a rush of emotions for me to paint. Since I was not an art-school artist, and fairly new at painting, you can only imagine the butterflies I had. It felt as if Michael was really here watching me paint and I felt so close to him when painting. This was a horrid winter and during this time I began noticing lots of people in need, beggars or homeless, out in the freezing cold so I guess you can call it that Holy Spirit impressed my heart on this situation. So I began taking them tea and food (when I had it) and I think it's what Michael would love 6
