Im not hating on the the guy or anything, hes got an incrediable talent, but is it me, or is the guitar they play through out the video sounds like the guitar on the ipod comercails?
Do blind people really move their head in the direction of their subject the way he does? Also, notice how he textures the paint. This is only a question, not a criticism. I would be willing to buy his paintings anyway, he has talent.
From my experience, people who formerly had sight tend to look in certain directions as if they could still see. It's just the way they're used to doing things.
This man is truely sunning...I would love to pick his brain on his work and see what he would think of how I can make a better switch one day From the little sight I use now, to when I go fully blind. Since I use a CCTV to do my work that is.
Wow, thats simply amazing. The fact he figured out a way to make his canvas have a texture so he could always come back to it and know where to fill paint into and how he can tell the colors from the thickness is amazing.
Heck he even paints better then me with two eyes. All the power to him. He's amazing.
I think it's interesting that he can't see his work, but it's still compelling for him --It's powerful proof that it's the doing that's imporant, not so much the finished product. Great story, great video.
He's fantastic And I'm impressed on his views on "seeing", his development as an artists and the artistic process. Very impressive and a great use of a life on this planet!!!!
Yes, much thanks from someone else who is visually impaired (from Diabetes). God bless John Bramblitt and bless his talents. His paintings are beautiful! And much blessings to Mika Ferris for this video. I would like to know if he sells his paintings. I like the wine bottles !
