Each year, MSAA features the work of artists affected by multiple sclerosis in the annual MS Ability and Four Seasons Art Showcases, including highlighting one artist each month as our Artist of the Month. This month – our final month of the 2019-20 MS Art Showcase – we are proud to feature artist Patricia Heller of Sturgeon Bay, WI:

“Magenta in Bloom”

About the Artist

“Painting has given me much enjoyment and has provided me a group of treasured friends including rookie beginning painters to lifelong accomplished professionals. These women lift my spirit and touch my soul.

Painting has sparked creativity beyond painting and has afforded a refuge when MS attacks my body. Painting keeps my hands moving, my mind positive, and my life active while affording me a trusting community.”

Check back next month here on our MS Conversations blog and on MSAA’s website as we unveil the new 2020-21 MS Art Showcase, highlighting new works of art by artists with MS!
