Achieving Sobriety Through Art

SOBRIETY IS ART –

June 26, 2024,   Drew Fowler is an artist living in South New Jersey who creates abstract fluid art. His pieces are striking, vibrant, colorful and as he describes them “inspired by joy”. It is a joy that was hard-earned by Fowler who credits his foray into art as a mechanism for maintaining his soon to be eight years of continuous sobriety.

Drew comes from a small town in Southeastern Pennsylvania, just outside of Philadelphia. He grew up with two older sisters and his mother but tragically lost his father to addiction when he was just sixteen years old.

“At the time I swore I wouldn’t follow in his footsteps”, Fowler said, “but still I found myself using drugs and alcohol to cope with his loss and all my other problems. This went on for several more years before I found sobriety.”
