Artist Statement

“This transparent watercolor portrays my niece who is employed by Froedtert Hospital in Milwaukee as a physician assistant. Throughout COVID she cared for seriously ill patients and their families. She consistently displayed her deep commitment and dedication. We could observe the emotional toll and challenges. Among all the tools and medications available to combat the disease we must always remember the human element is the most important component in patient care and recovery.”
