Win a Summer Prize Bundle from the MFPA

Sixtyplusurfers has teamed up with the Mouth and Foot Painting Artists to offer one lucky reader the chance to win a prize bundle from the brilliant organisation!

The Mouth and Foot Painting Artists is a self-help partnership of over 800 global artists with disabilities who create stunning designs using just their mouths and feet which are then made into products.

Here in the United Kingdom, there are 29 artists from across the UK, Hampshire to Hull, whose exceptional talent has been fostered and developed through the organisation.

The sales of the Mouth and Foot Painting Artists cards and products afford the artists financial independence, whilst empowering and giving representation to the disabled people. As a business, it empowers the disabled community.

The roots of the Mouth and Foot Painting Artists go back to 1957 when the mouth painter Erich Stegmann, who was afflicted with polio from a very young age, brought together a small group of disabled artists from eight European countries to create a self-help association.

It was his belief that if painters with similar impairments formed a co-operative it would be possible for them to live by their artistic efforts and enjoy a sense of work security that until then had eluded them. 

The result has been a unique worldwide art movement.

Stegmann was adamant that the international Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists must never be regarded as a charity simply because many of its members were wheelchair users or even in hospital beds.

To him the key word was “partnership”. This idea lives through the association today.
