"See Me!" A watercolor inspired by an artist's love and admiration for her daughter, Ryan Mason, RN

                                                Perri Mason painted this watercolor of her daughter, Ryan Mason, RN

From November 23-January 22, 2022, the Bower Center for the Arts in Bedford, Virginia has an exhibit entitled "See Me!" 

"Everyone wants to be seen, heard, and engaged with as a fully realized human being. Let’s explore the concept that we as people are genetically the same (99.9 percent according to the National Human Genome Research Institute) BUT ... we are different in how the world views and separates us.

What are these differences? Race, sexuality, disability, age, gender, religion, culture? How are we the same? " (Bower Center.org)

The watercolor was painted by Perri Mason, who is Chronically Ry's (Ryann Mason, BS RN (@chronically_ry) mother. The piece was inspired by Perri Mason's love and admiration for her daughter "Ry" who is diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). The painting is part of the exhibit at the Bower Center.
