Surface Tension

Art is Gehres' passion. It was once her vocation in life. And, when her health changed dramatically, it became her therapy. Today, it is her joy to create visual stories and share them with others. Her favorite medium is scratchboard art, but she also enjoys painting and drawing, as well as the photography she takes for art references. Gehres struggles with grand mal seizures, chronic migraines and interstitial cystitis, but she takes advantage of the days she feels well enough to work on her art. Her favorite life quote is, "Keep your face always toward the sunshine, and shadows will fall behind you." - Walt Whitman
