Blind painter - Esref Armagan

[tokamak]

A professor just sent me a link to this guy's website. He's been blind from birth, but he can touch objects and then visualize them in his head and paint or draw them.

He's better than my dad at painting

 

[yhelothar]

The biggest question should be.. why would he want to spend a life pursuing painting when he can never see his work...

You're right.. His sole motivation to paint is for... MONEY. There's no real enjoyment out of it. And no one gets this talented at painting for money.. especially not a blind dude. So if you don't get what I'm hinting at yet.. well here it is.. SHENS!
