Artists & Artwork

Sue Edge. 1.2 m x 0.7 m . The strong boab stands like a silent sentry surveying the landscape below. After the rains and flooding the river is full and the surrounding landscape, although flattened by the fast running water, is painted with wildflowers and green trees. For more info contact noosemum@gmail.com
Michael Hill. PD has on my art with its complexity of shapes and colorations as a reflection of this new journey with PD with its meandering course ahead interspersed with highs and lows, without an obvious pattern, and with conflicting elements that take you in opposing directions. www.michaelhillart.co.uk
Dawn Howard: This artwork represents Parkinson’s but can also represent many aspects of your life and health. This one represents Parkinson’s being in your head as a brain disease as well as the night terrors I have due to the disease and medication. https://tooshaky.com/gallery
Sara James. I have Parkinson’s but I paint and draw because it’s the only way to empty my mind. For more information Instagram @sqbcards
Ruth Knowles. I have always loved looking at different types of art. I always dreamed of creating art but life and work were always a reason for me to put off my dreams of creating something of my own. Now I am doing what makes me happy – life is too short to do anything less. My art is fun sometimes even funny. Click here for more Information.
Karina Lomeli. Dreaming Elephants art 1. Colors and fantasy envelop my art as a symbol of a utopian world that joins the passing reality of my being. Obra 1 y 2: size 1.20 cm. x 80 cm Contact Facebook: @spaciokiin
Kendall McDonald. Journey Together 16×20 Acrylic on stretched canvas. I have had Parkinson’s Disease for over 21 years and Art has been a big part of therapy for me. I’m now selling my artwork and DONATING ALL PROCEEDS to Parkinson’s Disease research and charities. https://www.kendalls-therapy-art.com/
Alejandra Mitchell. Old guitar recycled in my “Off” moments. 53 years old and 13 years since Parkinson’s diagnosis. Buenos Aires, Argentina. Click here more information.
Mike Riley. Art is a large part of how I manage having Parkinson’s. I had never painted until I had to retire 6 years ago due to my disease. For more information contact rileywatercolors@gmail.com
Janet Shipton. At the age of 47 in 2018 I got a diagnosis of Younger Onset Parkinson’s Disease (PD). My life long passion for art and its therapeutic benefits has intensified since diagnosis, and I enjoy sharing this through workshops, exhibitions and public speaking. www.paintingwithmrp.com
Linda Silver. Alone in a Crowd. We, as people with Parkinson’s, can sometimes feel disconnected; appearing in tandem with a crowd, yet moving to our own internal rhythm. The rain in this mixed media painting makes isolation appear more intense as the subject walks forward, unaware that she is leading the way for others. Click here for more information.
James Wilkinson: The piece is called Papillon. It represents freedom of movement and expression that is often caged by my day to day symptoms of my Parkinson’s. Click here for more information.
