The Blind Story
An inspirational story is behind this painting:
An unhappy woman met a blind man, who became her boyfriend later. While they were chatting, she asked him; 'why are you always happy? I feel sad most of the times.'
Her blind boyfriend grabbed a blindfold, covered her eyes, and asked her: 'What do you see now?'
'Nothing,' she replied.
He smiled and said: 'Great! This is your blank canvas. Now you can paint whatever you want on it.',
Date Painted: 2008
Painting Width = 24 inches (610 mm)
Painting Height = 18 inches (458 mm)
