Art Therapy
In this series of paintings and drawings, I am working with images of women and often with their post-surgery bodies. These female figures remind me of vessels - sometimes broken vessels but always sacred vessels. Sections of these bodies have been cut, removed, and reconstructed. Like a vessel, these precious figures may seem fragile but they can be whole again. I want to show how there is beauty and grace in these reconstructed bodies. I am on my own personal path of healing along with many other women who are on a similar path. I hope you can sense our strength.
