the moment that changed my art forever

Hi Reader,

Brain surgery.

That’s not the answer you want to hear when you’re sitting in an ER being pumped with painkillers for a headache that won’t quit.

But it became clear what was coming when the CT scans revealed an unknown mass on my pituitary.

It was my second year of teaching high school art.

I was 24.

And I had no idea that brain surgery was going to transform my art.

I share my story and the two pieces I created that moment in time here.

Remember, proudly call yourself an artist.
Together we are Artist Strong!
