Sargy Mann is no ordinary man. Born in 1937, Sargy has been an artist all his life. He was an art teacher and then became a professional artist who turned his eye to landscape painting. But early on in his career, a series of health misfortunes took away what an artist would most prize, his sight. Sargy Mann suffered from cataracts on both of his eyes at age 30, and gradually became fully blind. But despite all this, the artist never gave up on his life’s passion. Sargy adapted to his new life situation with great bravery and simply carried on with painting. Art collectors are now glad he never gave up. His paintings regularly exhibit at one of the finest art galleries in London and his art is coveted by the rich and famous- including film director Steven Spielberg. His paintings are regularly selling for upward of US$80,000. Video: BBC News source: The logical indian
