Mommy, I am Deaf

Description

Framed original painting on board by Betty G. Miller, signed "Bettigee." 20” w x 16”h. Painted in 1995, it was shown at Betty's Manayunk Art Show in 2006, and in the Sept-Nov 2008 NTID Dyer Show. It was also featured in the first calendar available at Cafepress, from 2004 to 2009.

"Mommy, I am Deaf!" came out of Betty's personal experience. Even though her parents were Deaf, she had two older brothers who were both hearing, and their first language was American Sign Language. When she was little, Betty had a hard time convincing her family she could not hear. It wasn't until she went to school that the teachers were able to convince her parents she is deaf.
