Theresa Sabbagh – Winston Salem, NC

I became interested in all forms of art at a very young age. I found this to be a relaxing hobby and way to express my feelings, which I find to be a blessing. I also like to make people smile and through my art I see that happen.

I never let the word “no” deter me away from expressing myself. I am not just an artist but a very passionate person in my belief that the arts in any form are a wonderful opportunity for everyone but, especially for people with disabilities. I have 8 auto-immune diseases and I challenge them every day to make me say “no or I can’t.” So far I am winning the battle, with our Lord’s help, I know I will continue forward.

One day I hope to have my own store front, so I may share my art and my blessings with all who would come. Ultimately, I would like to one day inspire people of all walks of life to learn to express themselves in the arts. Art makes life easier to handle when you have a canvas to unload your feelings on, which in turn, allows you to be a more loving, caring, kinder and a better person all around.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Sometimes, we may not like what we create, but our creation may bring a peaceful joy to those that can see our passions and our blessings in what we create.
