From Impaired Vision to Impaired Brilliance: Introducing the Work of James Cocke
Painting is an art form traditionally known for its stunning visuals and intricate details, but for James, it is a way to create inspired works of art despite being visually impaired. In spite of difficulty seeing, Jame’s painting skills have flourished in surprising ways, unlocking hidden capabilities and allowing them to explore the world in a way previously not possible.

From distinct contours to brilliant splashes of color, each stroke speaks volumes about their spiritual growth as they constantly strive to push the boundaries through discovery and fearlessness.
