oh my God, Peter. Imagine if it did have pity or any other indications of having a mind. As it is, it is devastating. If it chose its targets. if it were not bad luck but the result of a decision, I would have to start believing in demons.
Peter, The drawing in this one is masterful... the characters, the architecture... not being an artist myself, I can only admire the way you depict these elements. Thank you for again illustrating, literally and figuratively, the struggle that is PD in its many forms.
12 years ago when my wife an artist was diagnosed with PD the Drs. were then looking at the use of various chemicals that she was using many of them paint solvents and other aromatic paint mediums such as artists wax as a possible trigger for her disease. Getting back to age we have a young persons PD group at our hospital and one member was diagnosed at age 12 and is now aged 21 in group the Neurologists are loathe to start her on Sinemet as she will need it down the road and don't wish to start her young. A few Neurologist's think PD is not a disease at all as it it so unique but may be a syndrome of three disorders. We hope for better information in future.
If I have a non public email from you I can send you some photo's of her paintings she as well as myself( both artist's) were represented by the Ricco-Maresca gallery in NYC amongst other NY galleries.
My wife is not public about her PD on the WWW although we participate in many public foundations & benefits for PD research as well as the PD walk for the cure in our lovely Central park each April.
She has exhibited at the PS 1 museum now a part of the Museum of Modern Art.
She continues her painting and all other activities and is managing her PD quite well .

Adele, We could have a long discussion about demons. Fortunately, that is somewhat off-topic, and we'll give it a pass.
Dan, thanks. I went the full ten rounds with this one, and barely lived to tell the tale.
