The Medicine of Art - a Nebraska Story

Art and medicine, two terms which are generally unrelated, are intricately linked for Scottish-born artist Mark Gilbert. We see his latest works at an art exhibit at Omaha's Bemis Center as part of a multi-year study involving portraiture. The pieces are a series of portraits of patients and caregivers that often have a transformative impact on those involved. For more Nebraska Stories, visit www.netnebraska....

This is really powerful art in the drawings by MARK GILBERT. His parents, Norman and Pat Gilbert would be proud to know he was doing such interesting art. Jean Thomson, London, England
