Title

[audio description of "Touch of Paradise" (A.1)]

Description

The Touch of Paradise artwork is based on the artist's meeting with an employee from the Industries of the Blind whose description of everyday life is reflected in the artwork, and whose bright personality is reflected in the artwork's vibrant colors. The artwork depicts an outstretched hand reaching from the top of the canvas and the index finger is reaching out to touch the rolling hills. The hand is reminiscent of the hand of God in Michelangelo's Creation of Adam in the Sistine Chapel.
