[Artists-making-art] Hello

[Lynda Lambert via Artists-making-art]

Nice to meet you Dewald!
I am a visual artist and writer who lost my sight 6 years ago, too. I was 
faced with the same dilemma as you on how to keep on going with my art after 
the shift in direction.
I have a FB page where I post information about my art, exhibitions, and 
photos. I just uploaded a new group of photos yesterday from a two-person 
exhibition I organized with another artist who is legally blind. My own 
sight loss is much more profound that the other artist. She paints, and i do 
pottery and fiber arts, so we decided to do a show that would focus on how 
we make art. It is called "Vision and Revision: Two Artists with Loss of 
Sight, not Loss of Vision."

You can find it on Face Book at:
"River Road Studio" Here is the link:

And, I have a website. On that site you can find my blog. Just click on it 
once you get to my home page. It is called "Walking by Inner Vision." On the 
blog I discuss art and literature and information on sight loss and the 
arts.

I also wanted to say my granddaughter has gone to South Africa for the past 
two winters, in January. She will be going again next year. She works at a 
camp for children there, when she is on her winter break from college, and 
she feels like she has found her home-away-from-home - she is so in love 
with the children and the country.
