Finding Art that Best Portrays an Inspiring Cancer Journey

The first day of a cancer diagnosis begins one of life's most profound journeys. The
Lilly Oncology on Canvas Art Competition and Exhibition provides
everyone affected by cancer�those who have been diagnosed with cancer,
their healthcare providers, family members, friends and caregivers�the
opportunity to express the life-affirming changes that give that journey
meaning and to share their cancer journey through art.

Themes and Inspirations

Themes and inspirations for your choice of subject are everywhere: a friend,
sunlight or your loyal, loving pet. Picasso once said, "I do not seek
but I find." This is your opportunity to share your experience as an
inspiration to others on a similar journey.
