is a thousand words worth a picture?

i would like to share my art here, but one reason i don't is not knowing how to write #AltText for something like this

the only solution i can imagine is if, for each piece of #VisualArt, i write a short story or long poem, that attempts to invoke whatever i'm trying to invoke in the art

a challenge is that most of my visual art is created intuitively, and on the fly. i don't usually know exactly what i'm trying to invoke. in fact, my interest in visual art is because it allows me to explore #NonVerbal #CreativeExpression

how can alt text support non-verbal expression? this is a serious question

i think this is why my writing is veering into #surrealism and #ExperimentalWriting. i want to bypass intellect and communicate viscerally

ideas? opinions?

Had a great time in the #TactileArt room here at #NFB23 yesterday. Doing the same thing again today, teaching #TactileDrawing and holding an #SVG coding class at 6pm in Room 344 in the Hilton Americas. Come learn a fun way to illustrate in a non-visual way! #Blind #BlindArt #a11y

Here I was thinking that my pending announcement of #BlindArt #NFT would make me millions. How can I ever compete with the former President?
Alas! I'll have to abandon this notion.

Magritte said "Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see." So in that vein, I'm studying up and practicing with masks in #SVG to creatively hide and unhide shapes for more complex layering and depth in #TactileArt #drawings. So even when we can't see, we can still percieve hidden and unhidden things through touch. I may have enjoyed art history too much back in college... :) #Blind #BlindArt
