Healing Through the Pain

This is a show about the artists -- their struggles and successes. 
 

In our lives we often face obstacles; each of these helps us grow into the amazing people we truly desire to be. The works in this show have been created during times of adversity and have evolved into the art we all appreciate. 

 

As an example, Regina Holliday’s husband’s unnecessary death inspired her to take on the medical establishment through paintings which speak for her and convey her message through a beautiful visual language we can all understand. In her own words “You can’t tell a painting to shut up!” So we listen, we empathize, and we understand. Through her art and her advocacy she has affected people across the globe and her career as an artist has exploded to international fame.

 

Art has incredible potential to inspire us to greatness, to heal us in times of sorrow, and to convey a message to the masses. The works compiled in this show are all evidence of the powerful and positive change art can effect. These works are all transcendent, therapeutic, and transformative.

 

Enjoy them and be inspired!
