How do you create with your Disability?

Andrew Garza

I lost my vision later in life while also running an illustration company with my wife. I was lucky that I kept a good amount of my central vision but had to learn to work in the digital space in order to continue to draw and create in the way I was familiar.

Working through digital programs definitely helped get me off the ground, but it's not where I'm most comfortable. So I went on the hunt for solutions, with magnifying lenses used for model making being the best find so far! It gets enough zoom that I can see exactly where my pen is going, and doesn't give me headaches when using for long sessions.

What are some of the ways that you have adapted to continue, or start in the creative field you're in?
