PRESENTATIONS BASED AROUND ARTWORK

This is an unusual category of events for an artist, but many of my illustrations have been used to communicate important messages, especially in the areas of wellbeing, self care, mental health and caregiving. During the years I was working on the Caring Together art Journal Project, and then on the Optimal Health Program, I was funded to present at many events, including national and international conferences. All of my presentations were based around my artwork, using art on powerpoint slides and in short videos that I produced.
