Cancer is a life changing event. The first option for therapy is usually Chemotherapy. For those who have gone through it, or know someone that has gone through it, the bell has a special meaning. It means you have compleated your chemotherapy and can ring that bell. Unfortunatly, not everyone is able to sucessfully complete chemotherapy.

This painting is dedicated to those battling cancer with the hope that they can ring the bell.

In April of 2025 I was diagnosed with gallbladder cancer. The first line treatment was chemotherapy. As an artist I wanted to create a painting that representes my experience as well as those thousands of people in the same life changing situation as me. Once I saw the bell in the cancer center, I knew how I would capture my experience.
