I never knew this would happen in my life when it comes to creating art. After years in the marketing business this was a dream for me. I now know, why it has truly become my passion. Through loss there can be gain, and losing my husband to a terrible disease changed my world forever. The story keeps unfolding and finds its way through my love for art into my heart for making a difference. Let me introduce you to iPlaid.

Pancreatic cancer knows no boundaries. It is a silent killer residing in your body way before the first clue. The creation of whimsical, fun, colorful, and uniquely named art happened to me in processing what my soulmate was experiencing. It is my hope that you will place the energy of these pieces in your home, office, or as a gift, knowing you are a part of the journey too in making a difference for researchers who are working so hard on finding a cure for Pancreatic Cancer. iPlaid is a force and the acronym is "Intuitive Passion Launches an Inner Discovery"!  My husband, Dan Mears, remains the guiding light for this endeavor!  Why is it called iPlaid? I did my first piece of art on the iPad, it happened to be a plaid, so I decided to name it iPlaid in memoriam to Steve Jobs who was the most well known to have this disease. He was one of a kind and contributed to all of us in gigantic ways through his incredible vision and so too was my husband in his field of business. Please help me give funding to researchers to  prevent this disease forever!  I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support. A portion of my profits will help fund researchers. Make a Difference! is my byline...Susan Fielder
