Empowering portraits of women telling their by WordWomenbyMLP

In 2012 I found out I carried a BRCA1 mutation. It took me almost 6 years to make the decision, but in July of 2018 I underwent a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy to reduce my risk from 87% to around 5%.

This shop and the artwork contained in it are the product of my using art to heal [both myself and other members of the breast cancer/ previvor community. ]

To date I have done portraits to share the stories of over 100 women. This shop helps me fund the work I do to tell others' stories.

Please check out my instagram @melanielynnpenndesign to see the stories of many other women and perhaps even participate in my projects with your own story.
