SO INSPIRING... Young Man with DS Owns His Own Art Company



OH WOW....What an amazing life this young man is leading! Watching this clip just filled my heart! I am so impressed with how clear his speech is....and even more impressed with Dylan's passion for life! Visit Dylan's website to read more about his Visual and Performing Arts Company... DK Arts

Woahhh! I clicked on the DK art website, and the paintings are so beautiful.

Put the disability aside, ignore DS, he is so talented!

Put back in DS, and it's an incredible message of hope for all our children (& grandchildren). Thank you Cheri, this is getting me to think, a lot...

Nan, I completely agree!! He is quite impressive, I think we will be purchasing some of his art...as a reminder of the abilities of all people, but particularly our little ones with an extra chromosome.

I actually just browsed around his site again and I found that he is going to be in Dublin, Ireland in August as a speaker and exhibiter at the 10th World Down Syndrome Conference. http://www.oly-wa.us/dkarts/Events.php How fun is that! It actually looks like he has many speaking engagements set up for himself, very cool!!!!
