Art for the Blind

Museum reproductions are constructed using a flat panel made of wood as the "canvas." Design elements are glued to the substrate piece-by-piece, layer upon layer. Surfaces are smoothed, carefully blended and primed before color is applied.

The finished works look like exact reproductions to sighted folks, and a visually impaired person can understand and enjoy, through touch, the subtleties of the design created by some of the world's greatest artists: Picasso, Klee, Braque, and Gris among others.
