In the news

This past Friday, February 28, was International Rare Disease Day. Occurring on the last day of February each year, this event is important to me because I live with two very different rare diseases.
This year, I was pleased to mark Rare Disease Day by sharing a profile that had been published a day earlier in the "CanvasRebel" art magazine.

This feature describes my use of art as a neuroplasticity or brain-plasticity approach to managing the severe pain from one of these two rare diseases.
It also describes my #ArtDesitePain initiative, which uses my artwork to raise awareness of chronic pain - and encourages people living with pain to try creative pursuits to improve their symptoms and quality of life.
