MSAA features the work of many talented artists affected by multiple sclerosis as part of our annual MSAA Art Showcase. Each month we share these artists’ inspiring stories and beautiful artwork with you as our Artist of the Month. This month, we celebrate Bryanna McManus as April’s Artist of the Month.  Bryanna is from High Springs, FL.

About the Artist: Bryanna McManus – High Springs, FL

“I am a self-taught artist that started taking art seriously in 2020. When I was diagnosed in 2024, my hands started having tremors and I became discouraged to continue art. That made me very depressed. After meeting with a wonderful OT, I was given tools (and motivation) to pick up my paintbrush again. I still struggle with accepting my diagnosis most days, but art gives me a creative outlet.”
