Man Blind from Birth Knows How to Paint!!
"The picture you are looking at was painted by a man who has never seen a tree. He's never seen a person carrying a pail. He's never seen a mountain or a flower. He's never seen anything, because he was born without eyes!"
Esref Armagen of Turkey, has captured the attention of the art world with his vivid paintings, which he creates using a device called the "Sewell raised line drawing kit." Lines rise off the paper as little puckers, which he can trace with his finger. He learned about concepts such as color, shadow, and shading from conversations with friends. He was featured in a Discovery Channel special called "The Real Superhumans."
