Blog  written by a doctor at Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai about my painting workshop ---
 http://otbywastisaima.blogspot.in/2018/02/adding-colors-to-life.html?

I choose painting as it doesn't need mobility, requires less space, low investment (chopsticks, colours, canvas boards, stones, empty alcohol bottles or acrylic sheet s), no need of paintings skills, age independent and free to draw anything you like, no rules but desire to draw something. 

We are focused on  cancer treatment but not on how the person is dealing with it. Not much attention is paid to support during the process of cancer treatment and after. 

Art is very therapeutic and  This dot painting  helps the person during and after treatment to get completely engaged for sometime so they forget the hardships that they are facing due to treatment, add happyness and colours to their life. They can use the paintings they create to financially support them or other poor cancer patients.

It is engaged me and helped in my  BRAIN CANCER recovery and filled my life with positivity and hope. I was able to fund raise for Indian Cancer Society for poor cancer patients. As a survivor it is still engaging me. I want the same to be experienced by other cancer patients and survivors.

I'm looking to conduct painting workshops with cancer hospitals and societies for cancer patients and survivors.

Also for corporates where this painting can be used as stress buster for their employees. In schools for children so they can play with colours.
