This is how I felt after I found out I had cancer. 
 
Made with pastel chalk on sandpaper w/acrylic paint. 
 
 
My art page on Facebook is called Twisted Art by Jennifer!

I am a 29-year-old artist and art teacher who was diagnosed with stage two breast cancer this year. This piece was made using the iPad I had during my chemotherapy treatment. I was upset that one of the side effects of chemotherapy was hair loss because, as a young woman, I was very attached to my hair and how it looked. By making this digital painting I realized my own beauty even without my hair. Creating art eased the pain from side effects I felt from chemo and gave me something to look forward to!

&nbsp;I have picked the fifth image in the series representing my cancer journey called &quot;The Emergence&quot; to share. 
 
As it shows in my illustration, I am emerging from my journey with all its pain and suffering, which was the only way to open the gift called &quot;Second chance in life&quot;.&nbsp;
