[Nfb-krafters-korner] Becky, Thanks for the connection with Blind Artists

[River Woman]

thanks for thinking of me Becky. I am going to go visit his website, too. I 
am always interested in connection with other artists, an in particular I am 
interested in encouraging other artists who have faced sight loss. That is 
the reason I began my blog, to allow others to come with me on this art 
journey together. My blog was started two years after my sight loss - that 
is how long it took for me to again be using a computer. It took me about 5 
years to again create  work  that was museum and gallery worthy art work.
I started the blog to encourage others and to encourage myeslf - a way of 
recording my progress to again be a whole person who does extensive 
exhibitions and publishing my writing once again.  Please feel free to share 
my blog or website with anyone who is interested in fine art and 
literature - that is the focus of my articles on the blog. Thanks, again, 
for thinking of me.
