I was diagnosed with MS 22 years ago. I started painting as a way to get out and meet some like-minded people and to explore my creative side. I’ve found that my paintings express emotion — the Pumpkin Trio is cheerful and bright, Still Life with Jug is calm and balanced, and the Still Life with Teapot is boiling with emotion. I am so thankful to have a way to express myself, and that others seem to enjoy my paintings, seeing them through their own filters.
