Anatolii Tarasiuk — the Ukrainian abstract artist we told you about last year, who learned he had cancer as he was fleeing the war — has been undergoing chemotherapy in North Carolina. A recent scan showed cancer in his liver.

• Anatolii will have another major surgery in two weeks. He and his wife have three small children.

Why it matters: Tarasiuk is a wonderfully creative man and artist — and is still painting to support his family and cover medical bills.

Anatolii recently painted this oil-on-linen-canvas piece for us, "Light in the Darkness."

It's based on this photo that I took in South Florida.
