Keith Jancz Mouth Painter
Posted: 03 Nov 2015, 09:21Paralysed Man Creates Stunning Paintings Using Only His Mouth
Before his car accident in July 1995, Keith Jansz, was an avid sailor and windsurfer.
But after the accident left him paralysed from the shoulders down, Jansz found joy in a somewhat different hobby.
In his early stages of recovery, Jansz, from Finmere, Oxfordshire, discovered a love of art, after drawing comfort from the biographies of disabled artists.
Now almost 20 years on, the 53-year-old has become an accomplished artist - he creates beautiful paintings by holding a paintbrush between his teeth.
As a member of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists (MFPA), Jansz's pictures have been featured in exhibitions around the world.
