About Hope Fine Art

Our intention is to empower those we serve to express their deepest emotions through their creativity. Their original work—from paintings and drawings to metal and leather creations—is made available to you.

When you invest in their creations, you are not simply purchasing art; you are embracing a profoundly personal story and affirming the artist's inherent, God-given gifts.

Prison art is not what you think.

Prison art deeply impacts emotion by creating a vital, empathic connection that transcends confinement, forcing viewers to confront isolation and hope.

The limited materials and extreme circumstances often result in works of profound intensity and sincerity.

The art speaks to: those desiring an emotional connection through art that conveys the complex, raw, and unresolved emotions of grief, anger, loss, and hope—feelings born from trauma and isolation, which foster empathy for the marginalized.

I've been in prison ministry since retiring as an air traffic controller in 2010. Over the years I've collected various pieces of prison art. That interest has led to my promoting the artist and selling their work. I'm committed to returning the highest percentage of the sale price back to the artist and their family. Eventually, I'd like to use any additional proceeds, (donations) to higher attorneys to assist in the parole process. No awards or certifications other than training to teach and facilitate mindfulness meditation, small group discussions pertaining to the adverse affects of childhood trauma.
