Had a great time in the #TactileArt room here at #NFB23 yesterday. Doing the same thing again today, teaching #TactileDrawing and holding an #SVG coding class at 6pm in Room 344 in the Hilton Americas. Come learn a fun way to illustrate in a non-visual way! #Blind #BlindArt #a11y

The #TactileDrawing Teach-In at the NYPL Andrew Heiskell branch this week was absolutely brilliant, and it couldn't have happened without @ChanceyFleet, Ann Cunningham, and the rest of our instructional team that came together to teach art and drawing techniques, different methods of building #TactileGraphics, and connecting or reconnecting #blind and low-vision folks to these mediums. Check out my #SVG study guide for coding these graphics here: https://tinyurl.com/BlindSVGStudyGuide

If you are in or around #NYC on March 23-25th and want to learn #TactileDrawing and #TactileArt, sign up and come join our TeachIn at the #NYPL Andrew Heiskell Talking Book Library! I'll be helping @ChanceyFleet and #AnnCunningham teach #blind drawing and art concepts, #SVG coding, and how to create #TactileGraphics and tap into your creative and spatial skills. This is really exciting! #a11y #FeelAroundAndFindOut https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdB-q2xMqfVzx5Ltu-9KxkbqaGaWW3WuTwcdJ6oGxldupAAJg/viewform

Had an amazing time at our #TactileDrawing retreat out in #Toronto! We showed off different methods of rendering #TactileGraphics to people at the #CNIB, then back at our house we went into intensive study of different drawing techniques using #SensationalBlackboards for 3 days in our group while learning ways to teach perspective, obscuration, composition, orthographic views, and other techniques to #blind artists, and so much more! I love being able to draw again and teaching others!

At #SFO waiting to board my flight to #Toronto! Heading to a #TactileGraphics and #TactileDrawing workshop and retreat. Will learn and skill share on how to teach drawing to other #blind folks and tap back into all of my artistic skills from my previously sighted life. Going to be with @ChanceyFleet and other amazing people, and am looking forward to all the food, coffee, and Canadian shenanigans, eh? :)
