Thank you Judy, and welcome to the board. Your work has an energy and strength that I admire very much. Thanks also for the words of support, and the story of your own injury. Painting and art can have almost mystical healing properties, the kind that doctors of "science" alone will never understand. I've caught myself commanding the neurons to reconnect, directing the blood flow, and in the darkest moments wanting to cut the damaged tissues out of my body. I believe that without having painting I would have given up long ago (I'm 4.5 years into this, multiple damage to spine, ribcage, scapula and rotator cuff). Today is not my best day so just ignore my whining. I need a "wounded artists" site.

The book came yesterday, a real treat for my eyes! Thank you Steven! So, in my imagination, I will attend a real atelier.

Jean
