Daily Handicapped Doodles
#1
I thought it would be fun to start a thread for practicing non-dominant hand drawing. The only rule is you cant use your dominant hand so use your foot, mouth, armpit... anythings fair game and I mean A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G ;)

I'll be posting a doodle daily and encourage everyone to contribute as well. No pressure to create a masterpiece here. Just have fun and do something quick and painless.

For my first doodle I decided to set the bar with a masterfully crafted right foot drawing.

No problem meat! I like these plant animals you're coming up with. Nothing fancy for today, just left handed sketching.

Nice lizard and alien! I can't draw a single line that isn't fusilli with my non dominant hand. But wouldn't it be cool to be a bi-dexterous (is that a word?) artist?

Thanks meat, I believe its called ambidextrous. About a month ago I spent a whole day just practicing left handed ellipsis and straight lines and saw huge improvements. Im guessing it would take maybe a month of doing that to become completely ambidextrous.

Nice job Madzia! I havnt experienced that. Maybe its a lefty thing? :)

Stiff right wrist motivates the left hand to draw.

Alternating hands is actually better than I thought. Not only does my right hand get to rest, but when I start up drawing with right hand again I get this feeling of joy, because of the jump in linequality.

You guys draw better with your left hand that I draw with my right hand.

While this is fun, I'm worried if I'm treating this like a quick fix instead of investing in long-term paintings?

Meat, its good for getting your creativity flowing if anything. Try using it as warm up before tackling your long term painting.

I've been letting my right wrist recover so I spent today just practicing boring stuff with my left hand.
