Today is Renoir's birthday as well as this video shows Renoir painting. While it's slap-up to come across Renoir icon - it's fifty-fifty to a greater extent than pregnant to come across how this slap-up painter was still able to pigment despite the really severe ulnar divergence associated with the profound Rheumatoid Arthritis he experienced inwards subsequently life.

Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841 - 1919) suffered from severe rheumatoid arthritis for the final 25 years of his life. He became afflicted past times Rheumatoid Arthritis around the historic flow of 50.

The bandages on his hands were to absorb sweat to avoid peel irritation of the soft tissues of his hands as well as whatever deterioration due to maceration. He lost weight because of rheumatoid cachexia as well as nodules developed with the ones on his dorsum beingness especially troublesome.
He believed inwards physical exercise to stay inwards practiced status as well as retain mobility - but walking failed to deliver the form of mobility he needed to survive an artist.
This landscape was painted past times Renoir inwards 1915 - the same yr equally the cinema of him painting.
Chuck Close
Other artists have got also had to bargain with problems with their hands. The most famous contemporary creative mortal is Chuck Close who who suffered a blood clot inwards his spinal column 1988 which resulted inwards paralysis. He has his brushes strapped to his hands inwards club to allow him to pigment his famous portraits.
Rather fewer people know that he also suffers from Prosopagnosia (face blindness) - which agency he cannot recognise faces. His do of portraiture - the procedure of creating 2 dimensional flattened paintings of his friends - enabled him to larn what they looked similar inwards existent life.
Chuck Close remains interested inwards portraiture because it continues to acquaint him with a challenge spell at the same fourth dimension enabling him to break a way of working around the way he was created.
Other artists with oculus problems
There are whatever number of artists who are recorded equally having really pregnant problems with their eyesight (see Eye illness gave slap-up painters a dissimilar vision of their work, Stanford researcher says)
Essentially it's almost reminding me NOT to survive a wimp as well as to tumble out to engage with finding ways to construct my ain disabilities to a greater extent than tolerable as well as to stay engaged with fine art - possibly inwards dissimilar ways - despite whatever problems presented past times increasing historic flow and increasingly irritating infirmity. (I rather suspect this mightiness resonate with others who read this weblog equally well!)
My ain challenge
I'm getting some construct novel lenses - inwards my eyes rather than my glasses.
I've forthwith got my surgery dates and have got used to the watch thus I'm forthwith able to write almost it on this blog.
Eye surgery inwards May - 2 operations, 3 weeks apart - volition supplant the lenses inwards my eyes.
This is a large deal. I had a lot of tests at a specialist Eye infirmary when a pocket-size tyke (age 5-10) equally my virile mortal raise was their youngest ever patient with glaucoma as well as he was beingness treated past times this educational activity infirmary with query programmes. As a number I can't fifty-fifty create create with oculus drops. I'm the patient with an extreme aversion to anybody going anywhere close my eyes as well as extremely fast reflexes who 1 time had 6 people belongings her downward spell they tried to set inwards drops for a push clit per unit of measurement area test!
My eyesight has deteriorated a lot inwards the final yr or so. Some of you lot may have got noticed I've non been doing a lot of "proper" art.
I've got 2 problems - both hereditary - 1 from each side.
One is chronic (Cataracts) as well as a huge nuisance inwards relation to seeing both musical note as well as exceptional as well as the other is verging on astute as well as potentially really serious which is why this is forthwith moving along fairly fast. My doctors are hopeful that the construct novel lenses volition cook both problems spell I should acquire greatly improved eyesight equally well.
I've been working out how to travel circular things for some fourth dimension - with varying degrees of success.
Good contrast seems to survive the substitution at acquaint to dealing with my cataracts. The things I nevertheless have got problems with are reading labels with pocket-size impress ( I have got magnifiers everywhere!) and/or where at that topographic point is pitiable contrast. I totally position with the notion of it beingness similar to the lite having dimmed. Plus I no longer drive when people are using headlights (the starburst problem) or when there's a run a hazard of naturally dim weather condition and/or pitiable visibility.
I tin forcefulness out come across to travel inwards text if I tin forcefulness out magnify it as well as adjust brightness levels. My 27" Apple iMac covert is a huge boon equally I tin forcefulness out zoom inwards spell nevertheless seeing the whole width of a page. Plus Chrome lets me cook an embedded zoom storey - which is why it's my browser of alternative at the moment. (If you lot desire to know how only travel out a comment)
In price of fine art I've opted to stick to sketching for the most purpose equally that's something which nevertheless seems to travel OK equally long equally I'm non trying to survive besides precise. I've had to give on anything with besides much detail. It's really frustrating as well as that's likely the fleck I've adjusted to to the lowest degree well. I can't create subjects where I desire to create the detail.
Producing larger industrial plant of fine art - especially botanical fine art - inwards a to a greater extent than formal way - is to a greater extent than hard equally I break the translation betwixt details as well as the large icon a lot to a greater extent than complicated than it used to be. I've started quite a few industrial plant as well as had to give them upward - although the procedure did render nutrient for watch inwards price of what I tin forcefulness out create create with. One solution is to travel larger - thus I tin forcefulness out come across what I'm doing - as well as inwards a to a greater extent than wide brush way!
Visiting exhibitions has also acquire a existent problem. I can't read the labels on the wall unless I acquire upward close. I have got watch of taking a magnifying glass with me but watch it mightiness expect rather lightheaded - especially forthwith that many galleries render large impress explanations. (However they haven't quite mastered the fine art of getting the correct large impress brochures inwards the correct boxes - as well as they migrate betwixt rooms!)
What all this agency for me, is that, from the foremost of May, I'm going to have got nearly 10 weeks of somewhat strange vision. I'm intrigued equally to what it volition survive like.
I'm booked into Moorfields (a postgraduate educational activity oculus hospital) for 2 operations inwards May to have got my "real permanent inwards my oculus lenses" removed as well as replaced. My novel synthetic lens volition evidently survive adjusted to give me slap-up longsight vision.
There's a delay of almost 3 weeks betwixt operations. Plus I have got to hold back until the novel lenses have got bedded inwards - which takes almost 6 weeks - earlier I tin forcefulness out acquire a prescription for novel reading spectacles as well as an assessment to come across if I nevertheless demand estimator glasses. I'm only really thankful for the fact I e'er maintain my quondam spectacles as well as I'm hoping that with them as well as my electrical flow spectacles nosotros tin forcefulness out break ones which volition travel for computers as well as unopen travel during the 10 weeks. We shall come across - inwards to a greater extent than ways than 1 (pun!).
Mind you lot they nevertheless have got to learn me how to set oculus drops in! Eeeeeek!
How almost you? Do you lot have got a disability or other challenge which you lot demand to travel circular inwards club to to create art?
One must from fourth dimension to fourth dimension effort things that are beyond one’s capacity.His hands are precisely the same equally those of my Great Aunt - which is what I noticed direct away. Note how he never opens his hands properly, how his fingers are twisted at an angle as well as how a brush has to survive placed inwards his manus but is non strapped to his hand.

When it became hard to agree his palette inwards his manus he foremost allow it residual on his knees as well as the border of the easel.
