HANDICAPPED ARTIST IN CHINA



Thousands of artists from allover the world have made millions of portraits with water and oil colours till date. But there are very few examples of handicapped artists and more fewer are of the artists who make portraits with chalk. Among these very few artists there is Cong Langui. Cong belongs to China and creates portraits with chalk. Basically he is disabled from one leg but this inability did not discourage him and he proved himself as a street artist. He has created a number of beautiful portraits. Although all his portraits are masterpieces but the portrait of Mona Lisa is just great which he has made hundred times on different places.   


DANGEROUS DEMONSTRATION OF PHYSICAL BALANCE ON CHAIRS

Eskil Ronningsbake who is 31 years old is a talented artist from Norway. Eskil demonstrated a great example of physical balance in China. He balanced his body with the help of his hands at the top of Mount Tai. At the peak of the Mount Tai, Eskil established a 19 feet ladder and balanced his body on the ladder. Then he put three chairs like ladders on the edge of the peak and stood there in handstand position. Eskil demonstrated cycling at the edge of the peak and hanged himself with a rope in reverted position. It was really dangerous. Any small mistake may be proved fatal to him. He is practicing this since his childhood.
