The Canadian web site of the Mouth and Foot Painting Artists (MFPA). Formed in 1956, operating in Canada since 1961, the MFPA is an international, for-profit association wholly owned and run by disabled artists to help them meet their financial needs. Members paint with brushes held in their mouths or feet as a result of a disability sustained at birth or through an accident or illness that prohibits them from using their hands.
