Three days after breaking my back and neck on the job,
I discovered a sudden ability to draw hyper-realism, diagnosed as acquired savant syndrome.
With only 34 known cases worldwide, my doctor believes I'll keep improving as I continue to draw.
My journey shows we are capable of far more than we imagine, often unlocked through trauma.
Thank you for visiting—seize the moment.
From the depths of despair, you arose,
A fall, a fracture, yet talent flows.
Through pain and healing, a gift unfurls,
Brush strokes dance, creating worlds.
A canvas becomes your sanctuary,
A refuge from the pain you carry.
Hyper-realism, born from the fall,
A masterpiece, your inner call.
Doctors ponder, marvel at the sight,
Genetic memory, a guiding light.
Acquired savant, a label they give,
Yet your art, how it helps you live.
Eight hundred pieces, each one a tale,
Of resilience, strength, and how you prevail.
Through hardship’s grip, you find your way,
In strokes of beauty, every day.
So here’s to you, a beacon bright,
In darkness, you’ve found your light.
Your story, a testament, forever told,
In artistry, brave and bold.
