Default New Relief

Well here is a picture I hope of the relief I started on before I lost my sight. It's pretty slow going just by touch but still enjoy it.

What a great design. I do hope that your sight returns to a point where you can see what you're accomplishing. Meanwhile, we will be your fan club and tell you how extremely well you do.
Feeling your way through a relief carving must be a real challenge.

Amazing and inspirational....that's all I can say Ron.

Your carvings just leave me shaking my in disbelief of your attitude and dedication, not to mention your carving ability!

There is little I can say that others have not said already. You are truly an inspiration to all of us who are fully sighted and still can not carve as well or any better than you do. The good humor and determination you demonstrate daily is something we would all do well to emulate. May God bless you and lift your burden. Perhaps he is using you as a model for those of us who little appreciate the gifts that we have been given.
