A visionary artist gives hope to the visually impaired
By Deb Lehman
Though classified as legally blind, Michael Freeman uses his inner eye and soul to create dazzling worlds of color and texture.
“Never give up on your dreams and passions in life,” said Freeman. “No matter what anyone says, make your own path and your own way.”
Freeman has never given up on his dreams despite tunnel vision and childhood abuse.
“I paint pictures with tactile components and textures so others with vision impairments may experience my artwork,” Freeman said. “I began painting three years ago as a way to push my limit with my vision and also as a creative outlet for stress and anxiety.”
