Cancer Awareness Exhibition

Ventana Medical Systems in having an art exhibition  focusing on cancer awareness.  Here are photos of my paintings and artist statement that have been excepted for this show. 

"New Life"
 
I have many close relatives and good friends who are cancer survivors.  The courage they showed in facing their diagnosis and treatment was my inspiration in painting this butterfly which is a symbol of "new life".  I incorporated the colors of the cancer awareness ribbons that represent their various types of cancer.


"Daffodil Dreams"
The daffodil is a symbol of hope for a future where cancer is no longer a life threatening disease.  I dedicate this painting to all those involved in cancer research who will make this "daffodil dream" a reality

Here is the information on the opening reception for the exhibition:
