Stroke of Luck ~ Healing with Art
I am a contemporary Sumi-e artist reaching beyond the limits of traditional ink painting and
creating the ‘sound of one hand’. My
paintings one would not generally call traditional sumi-e. However,
I adhere to the traditional
sumi-e principles and philosophies, as well as, the traditional
preparation before beginning
a sumi-e painting. Sumi-e expresses the character and soul of the artist. It is a meditative process and spiritually
personal. Understanding this concept has been at the center of my art.
I experienced a massive brain-stem stroke 30 years ago. As an international sumi-e artist, I am often asked to tell my story of victory over stroke and how I used my art as an integral part of my recovery. I decided a few years ago to put my stroke story on my personal art website in the hopes it would inspire and benefit others recovering from stroke and also other artists in need of a little boost.
My heartfelt mission is to tell everyone on the planet that there is hope and life after stroke or any traumatic life-altering
experience. I want to inspire others not only with my words but also with my art.
