“Angel Boy Art has been such a blessing! We have finally found a vocation that encompasses all of Evan’s talents! It has been a rewarding journey for me to see Evan grow into a published artist!” Huenink commented. “Evan has a hard time parting with his artwork, so Lynae (Evan’s mom) and I explained to him one day what Angel Boy Art was all about, hoping to get a better idea of whether or not he would be interested in submitting his artwork. He was skeptical at first, but things really turned around when we told him it was going to be like ‘Evan’s YouTube.’”
