Being sight-impaired, people often ask me what my vision is like. As I’ve been sight impaired since birth I can’t explain how my sight differs, as this is all I’ve ever known. I can describe the posterior vitreous detachments though, as they’re more recent. I have large round floaters roughly in my central vision. I’ve drawn them both here, alongside a rough pastel sketch of the view of a cedar tree through my right eye.

I am busy finishing planning the talk I will be giving about disability arts at The Wilson in Cheltenham on Saturday 24th at 1.30. If you’re interested in coming along you can book online at: https://cheltenhamtownhall.org.uk/event/art-in-a-blurred-world/

I also finished this piece this week, another local landscape, featuring park benches, this time it’s Pittville Park.

I put the finishing touches to this landscape this week.

Some of the landscapes I am painting, like this one, feature benches. Thanks to Long Covid, I don’t do well with standing up while staying still, so a bench is always a welcome sign to me.

From snowdrops to bas relief.

I like to feel the shapes of leaves and flowers, to stroke grass heads, to feel the texture of bark. Bring sight-impaired, these tactile actions are part of my enjoyment of time in nature.

I am incorporating tactile elements in the local nature-inspired artworks I am creating. This includes bas reliefs of plants.
