Artist paints with lipstick to raise breast cancer funds
8At first glance, it’s not obvious that Katherine Mason’s artwork is created with a unique medium.
The Houston artist collects lipstick donated by breast cancer survivors to create her stunning artwork, part of a series called 'Painted with Lipstick’. Mason paints imagery that she hopes will inspire women battling breast cancer, from the female form to floral designs. Her latest painting depicts a pair of boxing gloves, which symbolize the fight that breast cancer patients face.
Mason first began her Painted with Lipstick series after a close friend was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer a few years ago. The artwork is sold to benefit The Rose clinic in Houston and the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
