Part of my ongoing cancer series.

These shots are in memory of John, Alex and Malia. They died from cancer, but before that I had the privilege to call them my friends. Their memories offer inspiration to me as I try to use my art to help others with cancer. I'm looking to use my light paintings to create a book to raise awareness and funds for a cancer charity. I use the pill bottles that I have collected during my own cancer experience. Over 10 years of pills really adds up. Hopefully something good can come out of this. These shots were hard to shoot, thinking about them, but sometimes I think the pain means your making powerful art which can mean something to others and be worth sharing.

 

If your a light painter or interested in light painting check out this new light painting group Shining Light on Cancer. Thanks.
