The Mom's Laugh Project was established to safe-keep our mother's memories, personality and stories from the effects of fronto-temporal dementia, or FTD. Each painting is titled with a date in the near future and depicts an image from my mother’s life and passions. When a painting remains unsold by the date in the title, the artwork is destroyed, representing the devastation progressive dementia has on both individuals and their families.

With the Mom's Laugh Project, patrons have a chance to preserve the artwork and in effect the memory it represents. Additionally, 20% of all sales benefits the Association of Fronto-temporal Dementias; thus, by buying a piece of art, patrons are also helping to find a cure and to assist many families and individuals affected by this disease.
