DIY Yarn Art | Easy Tactile Canvas 'Paintings': I've always liked simple, bold and colourful designs....and it just so happens I also have a rather large collection of yarns...so I thought I would combine the two! This Instructable shows you how I made a collection of mini artworks out of stretch…

Hey, this painting is the start of a new exploration for me. I've always been fascinated with different ways of communication. I also like painting my portraits with their eyes closed. To me when the eyes are closed it speaks peace and serenity, locking away all the negative, all the things in this world that we just a temporary break from. But what about those people whose eyes are permanently closed. This one is for you! This painting contains The Lord's Prayer in Braille. Enjoy! FIND ME…

If you can’t see, you can’t experience art, right? Wrong. Touch and sound tours of galleries can open up art to blind people
