If you saw the paintings before you met the artist, you probably would have a hard time believing the amazing paintings were done by a man who has no fingers.

Desmond Blair was born without fingers but that didn't stop him from learning to write and eventually to paint.

Blair had been drawing and painting since he was a kid but was really inspired when he went looking for a job and found employers were reluctant to hire him.

Rather than respond with defeat, Blair decided to do some painting to add to his portfolio so he could show prospective employers, even without fingers, he was capable of the task.

It was during the time he spent working on the paintings, he realized this is what he was really meant to do. After seeing Blair's works of art, it's clear he made the right choice.
