Glioma of the left parietal lobe image courtesy of Wikimedia Commons "A glioma is a type of tumor that starts in the brain or spine. It is called a glioma because it arises from glial cells. The most common site of gliomas is the brain.[1] Gliomas make up about 30% of all brain and central nervous system tumors and 80% of all malignant brain tumors." Wikipedia "Rosacea was associated with a significantly increased risk for glioma in a nationwide cohort. This association may be mediated, in part, by mechanisms dependent on matrix metalloproteinases. Increased focus on neurologic symptoms in patients with rosacea may be warranted."

But by night she retreats to a tiny hillside shed in the backyard of her childhood home in Corning, New York, opens a bottle of wine, and paints with it. Part of her process is consuming while she works, of course, so results are sometimes unexpected—often pleasantly so." Punch Pinterest says she is now based in Portland. Amelia Fais Harnas began "experimenting with a series of portraits involving wine stains and embroidery" in 2011 according to Christopher Jobson, Colossal. The Huffington Post writes, Amelia "forgoes the traditional canvas and paint for tablecloths and wine." Punch writes about Amelia's process, "Having always loved wine, she recently became curious about how it might work as a stand-in for watercolors. After tirelessly testing the wine painting process (which she prefers to keep partially secret), she has recently started to release them for sale." Cellar Vie Wines writes, "The artist creates portraits by staining fabric with red wine using wax to create dark and light toned patterns that in her own words result in 'a blend of chaos and control'. " Lomography writes, "Harnas, who describes herself “a portraitist at heart,” says she was “particularly intrigued by the challenge of trying to control the unpredictable nature of wine bleeding through fabric in order to channel the equally imprecise nature of a person’s character.” WSKG Public Media, Artist Cafe, Web Extra, interviews Amelia who explains how this process works. "Amelia Fais Harnas embraces this aspect of wine unreservedly. Her portraits have a shroud like quality about them, haunting whispers of faces that seem as though they may fade away if you stare at them for too long. The inclusion of embroidery, wax resist, gouache and gold ink to anchor and give depth to her designs adds to the sacred feel of the work, replicating techniques used in ancient religious iconography." The Divine Work of Amelia Fais Harnas, Carrie McCarthy, Cultural Flanerie The NRS reports that Amelia was diagnosed wth rosacea in 2015 in an article explaining her "paintings began to attract attention online." Amelia is quoted in the NRS article as saying, “I almost always drank a glass of wine whenever I worked on a wine stain,” she explained. “Creating wine stains can prove to be very frustrating, and a big glass of wine was an obvious and easy way to make things more palatable.” Amelia has an interesting autobiography and resume worth reading.

After a couple of pool visits, I noticed a rash forming on my arms and blotchy, red patches on my face. Like a responsible adult woman, I decided to see my family doctor who told me that the condition of my skin was “concerning” and “may have been caused by chlorine.” The doctor diagnosed it as “probably rosacea” and prescribed me an antibiotic compound cream which I have to slather on my face three times a day.
