Sales director turns into an ARTIST after surgery to remove a brain tumour
An IT sales director who had a brain tumour says surgery to remove it has mysteriously turned him into an artist.
Until six months ago, Michael Wyatt, 47, had no artistic skills, but he claims a brain tumour on his pituitary gland caused him to develop a creative flair.
Mr Wyatt, from Wokingham, Berkshire, said that since waking up from surgery to remove the tumour in January, he has felt ‘compelled’ to draw, paint and share his artwork with the rest of the world.
His prints were immediately sought after by a London design buyer who decided to print them on T-shirts to be sold in shops including Next.
