Chuck Close is an amazing artist.

Before he was paralyzed, he painted hyperrealistic paintings.

He was paralyzed in 1988.

But he continued to paint with many physical therapy sessions and a painting brace.

He started painting more abstract with pixels.

With all the landscape beauty around him in New York, he still painted portraits.

Chuck lives everyday with happiness even though he is paralyzed.

Chuck says, ¨I was trapped in a body that didn't work, but somehow I was going to get the paint on the canvas.¨
