With a focus on the light-hearted and whimsy of still-life and landscape, I love to doodle, design, draw and paint. Check out my full website: www.froghappy.com
MessageStarting Lefty:
In short, about 5 years ago my right shoulder hurt like heck and my right hand was in a cast... AND holy moly did I realize how hard daily tasks were having to go Lefty. At first I was a brat about it... complaining more than my per usual. But then (three years later ... yup stubborn typicalness), I embraced it and decided maybe there was something to be learned. So, I started doing more stuff lefty. (ie. standing on my left leg, feeding tennis balls lefty (that was very hard), hitting a two handed forehand (even harder), washing my hair lefty (try it, it's not easy) AND finally, drawing lefty!
Charcoal Rocks! Just like I first started drawing lefty using charcoal,... for anyone who is going to sign up for one of the "Exploring Creativity" workshops, we will use charcoal. 1) it's cheap (and so is the paper we will use so there's no pressure to create a masterpiece), 2) Using different pressures and techniques, value becomes apparent quickly - even for me someone who is Value Blind (I just made that up!). 3) It's easy to maneuver especially LEFTY!
