CLEVELAND — "What I see is a favorite emotion rather than a favorite picture, a favorite thing, you know."
When it comes to art for 16-year-old Bryce Lowry, he captures it all.
"You know, I get an emotion feeling from these pictures, and I capture it in my photography," he said. "So it’s not so much what I see, it’s what I feel."
With an eye for change, Bryce’s mother, Angela, explains life wasn’t easy after he was diagnosed with autism.
"There were times that I had to fight hospitals to release him to me because they wanted to put him in a group home," Angela said. "And during those times you just can’t image that you'll make it through."
With the help of Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Bryce became more social, motivated and wanting to use his eye for art to help others -- and that’s when the Art for Autism was created.
"A lot of senses are heightened from photography, and I capture that in a picture," Bryce said.
Bryce’s nonprofit site, Art for Autism, is designed to sell his own photography and other artist's work to raise awareness for autism.
"We made it through, and here he is," Angela said. I am just incredibly proud."
His ultimate goal is to get some of these photos inside hospitals around Northeast Ohio.
