Some say my Grandfather looks like Carl from Up, but tall and skinny.
He's a big inspiration to me.
He's an amazing artist, even though he was born colorblind.
As a child I used to sit on his desk and help him pick colors. He'd ask "Is this leaf-green?" and show me a bright pink pencil.
Today he suffers from cataract and his dominant arm was crippled in a car accident. Neither keeps him from drawing.
This is my favorite of his drawings - "Easter Walk".
