" Spot the Braille Dog..."
Bronze
Spot has his nose, ears and other areas labelled with Braille.
There are three dogs running across his chest to lead the hand to the title of the work also in Braille.
These relief dogs on Spot enable me to "show" blind people that they too may enjoy
the speed and exuberanceI endeavour to capture in my 2D work.
​ Running along his back is a secret message from Spot for the sight-impaired readers.
