Ries

Volunteer at Australian Pain Management Associatio and Artist in Brisbane City, Australia

Support my charity

My name is Ms. Therese Elizabeth Ries (my last/ Family name is Ries) and I am presently working on a commissioned wall mural 2.6m x 3.4m for myFootDr - Camp Hill in the kids area of the clinic .

I previously Volunteered at Australian Pain Management Association and I was a Volunteer Florist at The Flower Project Foundation ( when it was still up and running before the funding ran out). I live in a North Western suburb - Newmarket in Brisbane City, Australia.

I am a fan of Floristry and CRPS Awareness, Art , and I have an offbeat , quirky sense of humor. I’m also interested in raising awareness of different diseases and conditions just like the conditions I have - CRPS - Complex Regional Pain Syndrome ( a disease of the Central, Sympathetic & Para-Sympathetic Nervous Systems - mine originated in my Rt Foot after an injury and since my diagnosis it has spread to include my Left Foot and Both Hands and there is NO CURE . Mild Scoliosis of the Thoracic & Lumbar regions . Right Shoulder Bursitic Calcific Tendonopathy of the Rotator Cuff. Asthma, Chronic Insomnia & Secondary Depression due to the 24/7 x 365 CRPS Pain .

I create 1 off Unique Mixed Media Artworks on timber framed canvases using Acrylic Paints, embellishments and each piece is signed and dated both on the canvas and the frame ( on the back) . each piece is up for sale and is priced according to the amount of time it took to create each piece and the skill, creativity and the cost of materials used in creating each piece - prices are between $200 AUD and $400 AUD. I also am available for consultations and small Floristry jobs just not at short notice as I am unable to drive . I am a Cert 2 and Cert 3 Qualified Florist graduated in 2011 from BNIT Grovely Campus.

I am thoughtful and kindhearted and have empathy in bucketfuls . I always try to help in whatever way I can , for however long I can, and share whatever I have .You can support my charity of choice - the Australian Pain Management Association with a click on the button above.
