My brother, Benjamin Vandermark, was an artist for most of his life. In 2010, at the young age of 44, Ben suffered a massive stroke, which caused him to lose the use of his right side, and most of his ability to communicate. Being right handed, it looked as if his painting days had ended for good. But GOD had other plans. While going through mentally and physically grueling rehab, Ben was handed a dry erase board as a means to try and communicate somehow. Instead, what he did with his left hand stunned us all.
From that day on, Ben didn’t look back and the world truly knew his ability to paint was a gift from God, as it transferred over to his right hand. You will find some of his artwork here on this page or on the facebook page “A Stroke of Art.” If you are interested in purchasing some of his miracle work you may contact me at the email address tracivandermark@msn.com or via the Facebook “A Stroke of Art” page. The Facebook page also has a gallery of available artwork and prices. A glimpse of a few of them are shown below.
