Next Saturday at 7:00 p m Eastern
time we will have a class on Braille
drawings. You need a Braille writer or slate and stylus and paper,
preferrably 11 by 11.5. You should also be prepared to copy the design in
Braille or recording. We will probably do a pumpkin with a face, which is
small, and a flag which is larger and will not fit on the narrow paper. I
can give you a pattern for a small flag, but the large one is better, so I
think we should make that one.
I can dictate both if there is time.
So far I have Nella, Joyce, Terry K., and Deborah K. signed up. If you
have questions or if more people want to take the class, you can email me
at walhoframona at gmail.com <mailto:walhoframona at gmail.com> .
We will use the familiar number 605-781-1000; access code 875029. Please
copy the number. I will try to send a reminder later, but try to keep
track of the number.
These are fun drawings to make, recognizable to both sighted and blind
people. They help blind people to understand how pictures represent
things, although they are only outlines of what pictures show for sighted
viewers.
Once you get the hang of it, you may want to make your designs, however,
you may want to learn more than two to get the feel for what can be done.
This is not the only way to make tactile drawings, but it is good for
quite a few designs.
I am looking forward to seeing you all on the phone next week.
Ramona
