Sign Language in Art

I said previously that we needed to highlight some Deaf Art, and here is one. More than anything else, I love looking at art. Paintings, sculptures, drawings, you name it. My husband knows how to make me happy: just take Hana to an art museum or gallery.
Chuck’s Brushes are unique because they are paintings that incorporate sign language. On his home page, you immediately see an example: a sunset with the sign for sunset.
In his Gallery, are more paintings using sign language. “Coyote,” “America,” “Blooming,” “Colors,” “A Couple in Love,” to name a few. His style seems to be of the illustrative type, telling a story behind the paintings such as “Left and Right” of a brain surrounded by a pair of hands. His works are very colorful, a celebration of colors.
Do you know of others like Chuck’s paintings? Comment here with links so that we can all go and look.

Got a question? Something you want to bring to my attention?

My Deaf friend already met him at the airport last few years in Texas. They had a nice chat in the airport. Oh, I am so jealous of her! =)

Chuck used to be my art teacher in Sterck School (now, Delaware School for the Deaf) when I was 8 years old. He is an excellent artist.
