Due to a complication at birth, I have constant double vision. To compensate, one eye is stronger than the other and I have no depth perception. This flat vision allows me to see the world as if it were already on canvas–with visual cues of light, shadow, and scale to create form. My particular viewpoint causes everything to become a portrait, including inanimate objects. Everything has a life.
