Grateful Calligraphy

At 35, Wesley was diagnosed with a rare form of glaucoma that left him blind in his right eye and with less than 40% vision in his left. Despite this severe impairment, he remained committed to his passion for Chinese ink calligraphy and painting. Refusing to let his disability define him, Wesley transformed adversity into artistic strength. His journey is a testament to resilience, creativity, and the enduring power of personal vision—proving that true sight lies not in the eyes, but in the spirit.

感恩 (gǎn ēn) expresses a heart of gratitude — a reminder to pause, reflect, and give thanks for life’s blessings, both big and small. Each brushstroke flows with sincerity and warmth, embodying appreciation, kindness, and the quiet strength that comes from being thankful. A piece that celebrates grace in humility and joy in giving.
