Hey everyone….
My entire life I have always struggled with inverting my words or writing some of them backwards… I could never understand why it happened or really how to stop it…. they were quite normal to me and at first glance, I thought I was spot on, only to find that my writing was full of reversed words and sentences…..It was only later that I found out that I have suffered with a mild form of Dyslexia. As I started to do more research on the subject I was amazed how many others have suffered as well…Leonardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollack, Chuck Close, August Rodin, Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, Steve Jobs, and Henry Winkler…
They say that 1 in 7 are affected with various forms from minimal to severe. I was really shocked that studies showed it really seems to affect the creatives more time than not. When I first saw the list of the prominent people I actually found some comfort knowing I was not alone.
This was my motivation in creating this piece, as I wanted to let everyone know who suffers from any form of Dsylexia, that you can succeed, you can prosper and you can lead….so for anyone out there…… No matter what is said or how its said… I will always believe in you.. go do it!
So Here is my latest painting… It is 40×30 oil, it is titled, “Dyslexia” . Hope you all enjoy…I’ll have another one out shortly….
peace
