I think this is finished!


This proved to be a good challenge to see what I could achieve with a knackered left arm. I finished eventually however it took a while. Simple tasks such as holding a pencil sharpener, and taking off lids on paint tubes slowing me down.

I did enjoy this though, it was nice to get back in the studio.

The one handed artist is still perservering!



Lots of things to sort with this. Some bits to the left I like, lots of bits to the right I don't! Progress is slow as I seem to not be able to work more than an hour a day.

Ponte Vecchio w.i.p


Well I've made it back to my studio, my left hand still very much out of action. Being right handed, I figured I could easily crack on with some work, but the whole process has been hard. Trying to remove tops from tubes of paint one handed, sharpening pencils ( I need to get another pencil sharpener ), just holding reference pictures in my left hand tires it.
But I have made a start, I'm finding it hard to get straight lines without my left hand to steady me, I guess it will come with practise!
