I had a student in my elementary art class, who was almost completely blind. He as able to see shapes and shadows by putting his eye right down to the paper. For all my students, I was in the practice of giving very clear verbal instructions along with written and illustrated versions of the same. In addition to the verbal instructions, I made him very large direction sheets and illustrations, which he could see, just a bit at a time. He was able to work with the class and express his ideas in his own way. I also made available actual objects like wooden figure or hand forms, still life objects etc. Three Dimensional work did not pose a problem. |
