World Cancer Day 2021

Yesterday was Throwback Thursday and World Cancer Day. So I decided to post my post-cancer paintings on my socials. I had 2 cancer trajectories, 6 months apart, thyroid and breast. When I kind of recovered, I geared my art practice towards working through the pains, both physical and mental, at first heavily inspired by Frida Kahlo (who else?). In 2011 I even curated a group show in St.Petersburg Florida with 2 other women artists who'd gone through cancer for which I got local TV coverage. The blog is still up painting2cancers.blogspot.com Here are some highlights.
