Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "Many events, people, and even obstacles contributed to making Helen Taussig the person she was, which is what the dots in her portrait represent. With pointillism, a picture is not complete until the dots are put together. Helen Taussig took the ‘dots’ in her life and pieced them together to form the marvelous person she was."
