Les Klein – Goshen, NY

Hi my name is Les Klein. I was diagnosed with MS in 1992 on my 40th birthday.

I was trained to become an art teacher in the 70’s. Unfortunately, due to budget constraints my dream was never actualized. And so my artwork never materialized as well.

It seems ironic that MS put on constraints for me too. It wasn’t until I felt I had enough of feeling sorry for myself that I decided to join an art group that cared and helped me nurture any ability I had creatively and physically.

My art in acrylic painting and watercolor is usually from people’s photos of trips taken around the world. In effect, I am a sit-down traveler and loving it.

I hope my art sends a message of hope to those effected by MS.
