This is truly amazing. A man who has had severe cerebral palsy all his life creates art with his typewriter!

I am a natural born artist, never took lessons, started with
pencil and eventually to oil paints. I am or was a portrait artist, my love is doing people and I was very good at it. I haven't done much in the past few years because my hands
do not work that good anymore. After watching him on what he can do on that typewriter, I got nothing to gripe
about, I may just pull out my brushes and oils and try again.
Inspiration? definitely, Thanks Wendy

Thanks Wendy. Great post.

I heard it said that we only use 10% of our brains. I guess this man is using the 90% that the rest of us don't use.

Inspirational is the only word to describe it.

My older brother has had cerebral palsy all his life but is fortunate in that it only effects his right side (right arm and leg). He turned to art as a teenager and has been an artist ever since.

I'll have to show him this link and tell him to "get off his butt and get to work".
