This painting was done by a woman who knows what is good in life. My friend and favorite artist NancyBea paints delicious food, trees in summer, her kids, her friends. She coined the term “Genre of Inclusion” (I think), which is where she paints pictures that might also have something different in them, something or someone we are not used to seeing in portraits, like her son stimming. When I look at her stuff, I want to be in that house with those women chatting, or I want to hug her boys, or introduce them to mine. Her paintings burst with honesty, color, and love. Just like her, come to think of it!

Your friend does beautiful work!
Just yesterday I was looking up an old friend from my first microcephaly support email list. He’s an artist who’s daughter had a severe stroke at birth and suffered brain damage. His paintings are gorgeous, and include a lot of kids with disabilities. He even did a painting of his daughter Savannah’s wheelchair.
He’s not at that email addy anymore, though, so my attempts to contact him bounced back. Now I’m really wondering what he’s up to. The site hasn’t been updated in two years. Maybe I’ll search for a phone number today in the white pages. Here’s his site: http://www.dsborden.com
Thanks for sharing…my fav’s are the still life x 2 and the square holes.
