On Butterflies of Wisdom today (Wednesday, October 25, 2017), Best-Selling Author, Win C welcomes John   Furniss. John is   an artistic   woodworker in   the   Pacific   Northwest.   He has   been fully   blind since the age   of   16   and learned   woodworking at   a   school for   the blind   in his   early   20’s.   His teacher was also   blind and   was able   to share   adaptive techniques   with him   specifically for   woodworkers without sight.   John relies   heavily on   visualization and   his sense   of touch   during his   process.   For his pieces,   he creates   a   “blueprint”   in his   mind.   He is   drawn to   exotic hardwoods   and contrasting colors.   John knows   what it’s   like to   face extreme   challenge and   come out   stronger on   the other side.   His perseverance   shows others   there are   no real   limits in   life except   those that   we create.
