<p>As <a href="https://wdef.com/2017/11/17/ooltewah-student-honors-houston-officer-killed-harvey/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WDEF</a> reported, the eighth-grade student was compelled to create the piece when he began to come to terms with the devastation Hurricane Harvey caused in the region.</p>
<p>&#8220;I can only imagine how bad it was,&#8221; Mathis said.</p>

<p>The student&#8217;s art teacher said she and her class considered what they could do to express sympathy and appreciation to the fallen officer&#8217;s loved ones.</p>
<p>&#8220;We kind of thought about a few things that we could send to them and I thought we could do something else,&#8221; Lisa Gossett said.</p>

<p>Gossett has watched Mathis grow as an artist over the past two years, noting she gets &#8220;chills&#8221; when she thinks about his talent.</p>
<p>&#8220;In sixth grade he was fantastic and in eighth grade, you just see more progression,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I just gave him the paper and pencil and he did the rest.&#8221;</p>
<p>As for the artist, Mathis said he is proud of his work and glad that the portrait of Perez is bringing attention to his service.</p>
<p>&#8220;I saw a lot of comments about how proud they are of me like doing this portrait to honor a man who &#8230; died during Hurricane Harvey,&#8221; he said. &#8220;So I was really proud of myself for making people feel that way.&#8221;</p>
<p>Now the teen is looking forward to delivering the portrait to its intended owners.</p>

<p>&#8220;I hope they like this portrait,&#8221; Mathis said, thanking those who have supported his project, but a recent post from the department suggests they already do.</p>
<p>The Houston Police Department has already reached out to the young artist, according to <a href="http://abc13.com/2667260/?sf173639290=1&amp;sf173641849=1&amp;sf173693195=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">KTRK</a>.</p>
