“Art is so important because it gives us an outlet to express ourselves. It gives us a reason and a mode for our emotions. Art is very healing, and it’s helped me become the person I am today.”
Celebrate
#DisabilityPrideMonth with Kemi Yemi-Ese, an artist and therapist living with paralysis. Kemi was a featured presenter at
#ReeveSummit2024, where she shared adaptive art techniques such as using special grips to hold oil pastels or paintbrushes.
Looking for a way to create art with limited mobility? Try this: Use tape to attach your medium (such as an oil pastel or paintbrush) to a longer paintbrush or stick. Adjust thickness by adding more sticks or foam. Follow kemisart for more adaptive art techniques!
