“Invisible World” Fine Art by Deanna Caroon

“Invisible World” Fine Art Of Original Painting by Deanna Caroon
Invisible World is a 16”x 20” Abstract Mixed Media Fine Art on a Canvas.  
I painted this in honor of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Awareness Month. I began this painting with a beautiful Vase of flowers and then began thinking of my disabilities, and the layers my body has. The more I thought about them, the Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Eagles Syndrome, Pots, IIH, Spontaneous Cerebral Spinal Fluid Leaks, and Spinal Dyspraphism the more layers this painting began to have. From the outside, I appear as if nothing is wrong with me, I guess you could compare me to the beautiful vase of flowers, right? No one would ever know I am suffering from so many disabilities unless I tell them.

I read a quote that really touched me.

“To create one’s own world takes courage.”  By Georgia O’Keeffe.

  I feel as though I have had to do this since being diagnosed with my first invisible disability; IIH (Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension). Everything that was normal in my world had to change, so my family and I have created a world that works for us. Art, painting, is one of those things that is included in that world!

I recently wrote an article in hopes to spread awareness for Ehlers- Danlos Syndrome and Invisble Disabilities, you can find that @ https://kennedalenews.com/life/the-world-of-ehlers-danlos-syndromes-and-invisible-disabilities/

I absolutely love painting and writing, and hope I can do my part in helping people like me. As they say in our community “Sometimes when you hear hoofbeats, it really is a zebra.” Xo -Deanna
