"David Craig Welch commissioned this body of work, shortly after being diagnosed with a brain tumor and undergoing major surgery to remove portions of the tumor. David primarily sought to create a visual understanding of his ongoing experiences, both personal and beyond. While minimal formal direction has been given, David has given freely of himself, his thoughts, his writings and access to his medical procedures and doctors." -- Rosemary Feit Covey
