HEALING ART

Much of my creative work acknowledges the power of art to heal not only the spirit, but also the mind and body.  When I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1997, I immersed myself in creative process—painting, movement, poetry, sculpture and group work.  Creative work was profoundly healing and I will be ever grateful for the love and support of my fellow artists, friends and family…I would not be here without all of you.
This gallery showcases some of my healing artwork.
