We’re pleased to welcome Helen Butler, an artist from Argyll, to display her work in our community gallery for the fist time and tell the inspiring story behind her art. Helen had suspected meningitis at 11 months old which caused scar tissue on the brain triggering seizures at age nine. In her 20s the seizures became more aggressive, Helen suffered up to 25 fits a week and was left with horrible injuries including a broken nose and collarbone. In 2018, Helen underwent brain surgery at Queen Elizabeth hospital, since when, she has been seizure free. She has now completed major milestones like passing her driving test and has been focusing on her paintings, a selection of which she donated to the hospital that gave her her freedom back.
The selected works include etchings, paintings and pyrography and bring a splash of colour as we welcome spring. A selection of Helen’s cards is also available in the Museum Shop.
