A cancer diagnosis brings forth many emotions that cannot often be expressed through words alone. Art, however, brings them your in a powerful way.

An international competition is giving cancer individuals, survivors, their families, physicians and others affected by cancer an opportunity to share their experiences and motivate others through art. Entries for 'Lilly Oncology o-n Canvas: Expressions of the Cancer Journey' are increasingly being accepted through July 3-1. Here is the second competition presented by Eli Lilly and Co., in collaboration with the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship. To check up more, please check out: ledified competition.

'People suffering from cancer experience a selection of complex feelings, which can be difficult to express,' said Dr. Richard Gaynor, vice president of cancer re-search for Lilly. 'Lilly Oncology on Canvas helps to give these feelings a style, one that has resonance and meaning.'

Contestants are asked to send original works of art in the other (one-dimensional) art, watercolor, fat, light, photography and following categories: gas.
