Something cool! I took a 3D printing workshop last weekend, and then designed a 3D "creature" based on one of my recent paintings.
This watercolour was conceived to express something about the 1 in 5 Canadians living with chronic pain - as part of one of my upcoming pain patient advocacy activities (more on that coming up soon, by next week!)...
The background represents flames for the burning neuropathic pain of my rare disease, CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome). The orange "creature" is someone like me - one in five people - living with a persistent pain condition.
It was fun to see tthis little "creature" from my 2D painting come to life as a 3D object! Stay tuned for more information about the pain awareness activity for which I'd created the original painting.
