The Pere Marquette "Polar Express"

Bittenbender says that art has always been a source of joy for him. Though he lost the passion for a long time, it has returned to new heights with the support of his family, friends and the Art Ability staff. They inspired him to study all styles and techniques of painting and drawing. Bittenbender believes the confidence he found to push past his breathing issues and pain is owed to these kind souls. He loves all subjects, but prefers the beauty of people and the natural world for inspiration. “Thanks to you all who inspire the best in others.”
