Blind Painter
After losing his sight in 2001, John Bramblitt took up painting - an unlikely creative outlet for a blind man.
He starts by outlining his image on unstretched canvas, using fabric paint. He uses oil paint, because each color has its own unique texture that he can differentiate by touch, using the raised surface of the fabric paint as a guide.
Painting compelling art is a talent in itself, but without vision? This guy is amazing!
