Summary
Carolyn James is a talented painter, especially of landscapes. She is completely blind. In a full and varied life she was constantly frustrated by failing sight. Only when her blindness became total did her imagination and her daughter's paint-box free… her to make pictures. Within a year her work was exhibited, and soon she appeared on television and radio. She began writing poems, which became song lyrics, and now in her 40s is a creative artist in both media. 1990.
