On February 6, 2017, I dedicated a painting created for the Burn Center at Medical City Plano, Texas.  They had news coverage present and I was honored to be able to speak to the medical staff sharing my experience.  The painting was a gift to the medical staff but by creating it actually helped me heal.  Since then, I have created paintings for several Burn Centers and hospitals around the country. 

​

In March 2019, I was asked by the Editor-in-Chief of a monthly publication called Annals of Plastic Surgery to write an article about how my art has changed since my burn accident.  READ THE ARTICLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!           Click on the Word.doc link to the right >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>. 

​

In June of 2020, Manhattan Arts International published the article as seen in the link here:  https://www.healing-power-of-art.org/artist-j-t-hall-helps-fellow-burn-victims-heal-through-art/

​

Once it was determined that the article I wrote in 2019 would published in the March 2020 edition of The Annals of Plastic Surgery, I was asked to speak about The Healing Power of Art at their annual symposium on March 2, 2020 @ Chateau Elan Winery & Resort in Braselton Georgia.  For more details, check out my FACEBOOK page:  JT Hall - Artist or INSTAGRAM @ jthall.artist
