I chair the Disability Commission in Virginia's General Assembly. Here's what we've done and what we're still working on, in honor of #DisabilityAwarenessMonth.
Pelswick is on a powered wheelchair; he wears a purple shirt with a red horizontal line in the middle, white long sleeved undershirt, red cap backwards, and red and white sneakers
Pelswick is one series I’ve heard about for years, but never watched a single episode! That will change soon…
In the meantime, here’s the titular character! #Pelswick #Nickelodeon #YTV #DisabilityAwarenessMonth #MyArt
Albein wears a white/purple striped shirt; dark teal shorts with a sprocket as its belt buckle, goggles on the top of his hair, and braces with shoes to support his legs
July is #DisabilityAwarenessMonth, and I finally got around drawing a few pieces before the month ends 🙂
Albein from OPS: What a Hopsrible Pack is very intelligent and also an inventor! He lost the ability to use his legs to walk, so he fashioned special devices that allow him to walk! #MyArt
