Seriously. I'm amazed. Assuming this story's 100% true, it's something special. I just don't get how somebody who never did any art while he could see could have such a great understanding of visual art after he went blind.

That's amazing. I mean, how could this guy possibly have that clear a concept on light/dark, highlights and shadows? It seems impossible that he could be that exact and accurate by memory alone. Either way, it's impressive.

Thanks for posting this Inns.

Not a great day and then this mind-blowing reminder that we don't know all the answers and have no true concept of what the limits *actually* are. Bloody brilliant!

That is just amazing Inns. Thanks for finding this. I loved the painting of the girl's eyes that was hanging up on a wire or something...and his dog!

The brain is stunning in its ability to find a way to overcome. What mother wouldn't be proud to have him as a son. Way cool. I can't complain about anything today after seeing that young man.
