Summary/Abstract: The results of the research presented in the article concern the visions of reality and its various phenomena in drawings of completely blind people (congenitally) and late blind people. The focus of my analysis was drawing skills and their development. The research concerned convex drawings on foil for blind people. I conducted a qualitative analysis of the drawings. The main tool for my analysis was the model of the structure of an artistic piece taking into account the work’s content, form and creativity. All components of the creative process were analysed with reference to the subsequent stages of drawing development in accordance with the classification of the child’s artistic development within intellectual norm, as indicated by S. Szuman, V. Lowenfeld, W. Brittain and G.H. Luquet.
