Multiple Sclerosis ( MS ) T-Shirts







The artists in this section of the Art to Shirt store have devoted their skills and time to helping beat this debilitating disease. Multiple Sclerosis affects approx 400,000 people in the US and an estimated 2.5 million worldwide. By purchasing a shirt you will help support an MS artist and a donation is made to NMSS to further research into finding a cure.

A note from Elizabeth -


My artwork involves a dynamic collaboration between the disciplines of art and science. I became an artist only after I was diagnosed with the disease of multiple sclerosis, and my current work consists of self-portraits based on magnetic resonance images (MRIs), or brain scans that documents the effects of the disease of multiple sclerosis on my brain. This artwork is apart of my Brain Series, that consist etchings on paper and paintings on silk They explore the brain’s mystery, beauty and complexity and express my fascination with living with a chronic illness that involves the brain. My goal as an artist is to increase our understanding of the brain by making medical imaging more accessible to those who view these revealing pictures. I am a wife, mother, friend, public interest lawyer, as well as an artist. I have progressive multiple sclerosis
