2. Doug Landis was born on February 15, 1959 in Fresno. He
wasn’t an artist until a high school wrestling accident left him
quadriplegic, paralyzed from the neck down in January of 1975 at the
age of 15.
Concerned that Doug was spending too much time in front of
the television set, Doug’s brother, Monte, challenged him to draw and
placed a pencil in Doug’s mouth. Doug practiced and with time and
patience his style, known for its fine, intricate detail, emerged.

15. quot;I like to draw because it’s something I can do where I don’t
need much help once I set up, I have a lot of control over it,
and I’m my own person once I am working on it. There is a
freedom in that…I found a talent in myself that leads me to
believe that everybody has talents. Everybody can find
something in themselves.quot;
