[Nfb-krafters-korner] Drawing with braille

[Carol Osmar]

Jill, Hadley recently had a seminar on drawing with braille.  I 
listened to the recording which is available on Hadleys web site.  
They describe line by line how to draw five or six different 
pictures.  Have your braille writer or slate ready because they 
give you time to draw during the seminar.

Henrietta and I have both made greeting cards with braille 
pictures.

Have fun with it.

Carol

Hi,

I know we have been discussing the book " A Manual for Macrame".  
I went on
a search mission, but looks like Terry Powers is the only person 
with a copy
of this book!  I did however discover that Bookshare.org has " 
Brailleables,
So What About Drawing" by Marie Porter.  It sounds great!  It 
gives details
about using your Braille writer to draw and express art through a 
medium
that can be felt!  I have downloaded it, but haven't started it 
yet.  I just
wanted to pass it along.  I only learned Braille as an adult.  
Some of you
may be familiar with drawing with a Braille writer.  I think it 
would be
great to draw for my kids!



Jill
