Are there any other blind bear artists out there or am I a trail blazer?

after seeing some drawings and paintings from an artist that has no arms I think you can do anything you really set your mind to.  The drawings and paintings were just spectactular...

I was surprised at first, but then it occurred to me that so much of what teddies are all about is not visual - the soft  fur, the comfort of hugging a bear... I'm impressed that you're able to make bears without being able to see, but I'm not surprised anymore. Glad you joined us!

I was just curious to know if I was the only one.  I would love to talk to a blind bear maker to get some tips because they would be able to explain things in a way that would be clear for me to understand.  We do things a little differently than the rest of the world.  I know there are blind people who sew, but most of my blind friends wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot pole.
