Feel My Beauty Pink Cancer Angel painting was donated in 2010 to the Mays Cancer Center located in San Antonio, Texas. It is part of the University of Texas (UT) Health System and the MD Anderson Cancer Center. At the time of donation, the cancer center previously known as the Cancer Therapy and Research Center (CTRC).
The painting features an abstract pink cancer angel framed by soft pinks with yellow and blue accents. Hearts float throughout the painting, reinforcing the message of “love” and “beauty”. The inspirational cancer prayer of “Feel My Beauty” swirls around the angel and hearts. The words of the cancer poem “Feel My Beauty” swirl around the angel. The choice of pink is the color of nurturing love. The text notes that cancer changes living, but we choose our own life. “Feel Beauty” is meant to pay tribute when you see or feel something that moves you, but you can’t really capture the feeling with words. This painting is a multi-media combination of acrylic and glitter on canvas for a sparkly angel. Inspirational artwork by Laurel Latto for DonnaBellas Angels.
Beauty in Life ~ Feel My Beauty
Cancer changes living but in my life
I choose to know my love
I choose to believe in hope
I choose to keep my faith
I choose to welcome my peace
I choose to build my friendships
I choose to keep my sweet memories
I choose to accept my grace
I choose to embrace my courage
I Choose My Life
My Life, My Choice
Love ~ Beauty

In looking at the text of “What Cancer Cannot Do”, there were a lot of negative in the verbs like “kill, corrode, destroy” paired with positive nouns like “Beauty in Life Rounded Rainbow”. Laurel Latto decided to take the theme of this cancer prayer but only pair positive nouns and verbs together.
What Cancer Cannot Do
Cancer is so limited…
It cannot cripple love.
It cannot shatter hope.
It cannot corrode faith.
It cannot destroy peace.
It cannot kill friendship.
It cannot suppress memories.
It cannot silence courage.
It cannot invade the soul.
It cannot steal eternal life.
It cannot conquer the spirit.

Part of her writing process was to visualize how the text would look when paired with a painting. The “Beauty in Life” is meant to pay tribute when you see or feel something that moves you but you can’t really capture the feeling with words. She looks forward the opportunity to paint the text many times over in trying to capture the moment of feeling beauty.
