John Bramblitt is an artist. He is a normal person like us except that he is blind. This makes the fact that he is an artist even more unique and unbelievable.

Like the mysterious, unexplainable things that we hear daily – a blind men is an artist, a deaf person can play music – are those points, where reason doesn’t seem to agree with sense perception, so the things we experience aren’t really explainable how it’s possible that they seem to work.
For example it’s a very unusual thing, that John Bramblitt is able to draw things just by feeling them. This is a very unusual thing to learn, when I consider how difficult it is to draw a face by itself from a picture, or in 3d, but in his case he doesn’t even see the person and he has just his fingers to make himself a picture out of the contours and areas he feels. That’s just unbelievable being able to create a picture in his mind by just feeling the
