Radioactive Painting

In 2013 Bronwen Mayer Henry, then a young woman with two small children, learned she had thyroid cancer. Facing her fear and sense of hopelessness, she called upon her family and friends for love and support, and she relied upon her faith to keep her strong and resilient. Following her treatment with radioactive iodine, she was forced to spend a week entirely alone, taking up temporary residence in a house belonging to a friend who was away. During that difficult, but also pivotal time, Henry decided to spend her days painting. That week was a turning point, setting her on a journey to discover the force of her creative spirit to bring love and compassion to the forefront of her life. Radioactive Painting is a story about tapping into the energy of one’s creative spirit, finding something completely unexpected and beautiful in spite of one's fear and hopelessness.
