The ASL Flag “The ASL Flag” is one of a series of paintings Betty did featuring the flag. Betty rewrote the words to our national anthem to show both the beauty of ASL, and the oppression deaf people face.	Read My Lips "Read My Lips" by Betty G. Miller was completed in Sept, 2008. It shows nine separated rectangles, the first 8 have different lips in them, 9th has perplexed looking face created from a collage.	Mommy, I am Deaf! When Betty was a little girl, she had a hard time convincing her parents she couldn't hear!
Trees This American Sign Language sign for "Trees" (or forest) shows the beauty, strength and stability of trees, and also of ASL!	Untitled (the big ear) This painting, officially called "Untitled" but often referred to as "the big ear," illustrates how the medical profession often sees a deaf person as someone who's ear needs to be fixed.
