Next time things get a bit tough and you want to throw in the towel, spare a thought for artist Mariusz Kedzierski. Despite the fact that Mariusz was born without arms, he has fulfilled his dream of becoming an artist.  And his realistic drawings are some of the best we’ve seen!

According to Mariusz:

“But for me disability doesn’t mean that I can’t live my own, great life. It doesn’t mean that I have to forget my dreams. Art has been my way of life for 7 years. Since that time I have drawn over 700 drawings that took me 15,000 hours. Meanwhile, I got 2nd prize “Best Global Artist” in Vienna in 2013. I participated in exhibitions in Cracow, Vienna, Oxford, Wroclaw and more.”

Here is a selection of our favorite works by Mariusz.  Sometimes all you can say is “wow”.
