Mixed Media Artist Margret Hugi-Lewis shares her story:
Painting is a lot of movement.
My floor is perfect for the blades.
I fell very badly, and of course, I fell on the head.
"You have to come and see, there is this old lady and she fell on the roller blades." [laughs]
Then the doctor came, and I told him what happen, and the doctor said next time you wear a helmet, and I said I sure do.
Use your head. Wear a helmet.
