Stick to your Vision

Stick to your vision is something I like to remember when things go bad and I start to lose focus. I also titled it that after losing the vision to my right eye during a hospital stay in Stamford, Connecticut. On the painting you can only see the left eye... today my left eye is still 20/20. I'm still not comfortable drawing with one eye, but my desire to create and be an artist is far stronger than what I'm not able to see.

I also painted this image as a large mural on the Reads Building in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
