As long as I can remember I have felt the need to paint and draw. Being extremely dyslexic and having lived in my visual world for 50 odd years, I began to realise that although we as humans need and desire the same things, we think and react as unique individuals. The way we process our thoughts when we hear the spoken word or how we view our surroundings, is unique to you and me. Dyslexic people process thought in a very different way. We think in a purely visual way, conversations and stories are short mental films. There is no smell or touch to thought but we see it or hear it. I believe through dyslexia I have the ability to see thought and can share this gift with others, by exposing my mind in the form of images, stills of thought, a snap shot from a long film.
