The Hills are alive with the Sound of Music. I really feel this place.

i'm making a leather purse for my girlfriend. i'll stain the figure carving and tooling as realistically as i can, then apply resolene, a protective finish that darkens the leather permanently.

I think I remember those style leatherpurse. I had one. i would love to see it when it is completed. Your doing a really nice job. I look at the horse and think "UNICORN". It is so creative. I love it.

I started drawing with my left hand because it’s too painful to draw with my right. I figure I can do the outline with my right but definitely no shading . Shading with my right hand triggers such deep pain it’s excruciating. I knew this day would eventually arrive. This section of the tree was all left hand . I am actually really proud of myself . Not bad for a beginner! image.jpg

Awesome to see that you are moving forward but when did the right hand start revolting on you so I would suggest tiger bomb and acupuncture

"Tiger Balm" is good stuff but if it's hurting that much maybe a doctor's visit is in order?

Nothing and no one can help the damage I have done. It’s years of detail drawing that triggers a very deep pain and is activated from very small movements I have done repeatedly with the pencil. It’s like Carpol tunnel syndrome in my entire arm elbow and into my right upper shoulder blade area. Temporary relief might work but if I can just use my left that is the easiest solution, So that I don’t t waste money on
Temp fixes. Thanks for the
Ideas and concern.

Time to see a doctor. I know people who have had surgery for similar issues, they report that it's a process but they did get relief.

I know how important your work is to you and how it brightens so many lives. It shouldn't cause you pain to pursue it!

Hey Doc , it's been a while since I've been in this maze of art . Glad to see your drawings again , looking great, so sorry about the hand. That's a real f'ing bitch when you lose the capacity to carry out a passion , a very " dark cloud " . I'm learning as I go that it's a process that carries on . Things just get worn-the-fuck-out ! You'll find a way , no choice , its in your blood . To be creative and romp with the outdoors ...

Aww, it ain't like that.

Going to the doctor has helped me A LOT in the last couple of years; I've gotten cataract surgery to repair damage done from the treatment of my detached retina and now I can drive (more) safely. I've also gotten sinus surgery that corrected issues resulting from a childhood injury that caused me all kinds of breathing problems for going on 40 years. I'm now getting allergy treatments as well. I'm feeling better than I have in years!

You know I wish you only the very best and I would never tell you what to do. I just don't like hearing about you suffering and I hope you don't blame me for that.

This point in my life I know when a doctor can help And when they can’t. Your issues are much more straight forward than mine. I am glad things worked out for you. Don’t you worry about me, I work in healthcare. I know ALL about doctors and when they can help me and when they can not. I ain’t that naive. Lol. At any rate you have a strange way of communicating.
