"Art therapy is a refuge from the hard physical and emotional work of rehab. Art heals the mind, body and spirit." |
Doctor George continues to be amazed at the healing comments that patients and families say when viewing his paintings. The colors seem to excite and comfort the viewer, in a way that is difficult to describe, but clear when witnessed.

Doctor George's traumatic brain and spinal cord injury resulted in him making abstract art with his non-dominant left hand. He has created hundreds of paintings, and each one has a different meaning to every person. Maybe some speak to you in a special way. That is the magic of his colorful paintings, so many different emotions and meanings can be derived just from looking at the painting for a minute.
“I want to touch the lives of as many people as I can. The power of art continues to amaze me. It has affected me in the best way possible. I would like to help others experience the power of art as well. Art is a healing practice, it heals the mind, body, and spirit. I would love to inspire people to participate in this form of creativity.” |
