Starting yesterday, I've begun drawing with my left hand. Well, kinda drawing. I'm tracing the image (have the reference photo in Corel Painter X and then on a different layer I outline the picture). Wow does my left hand not want to cooperate. Very shaky and sometimes it just wanders off without telling me.
Why am I doing this? I'm experimenting to see if it opens up something in my brain. See if it helps my creativity or ... something. Work that side of the brain that rarely gets worked like this. So far (being only the second day) the only thing to occur is a stiffness in my left shoulder blade. Here're my first two attempts. The first one I tried to do quickly. The second one I slowed down and tried to really draw the character.

Wow - that's actually pretty incredible! You're amazing!
G- the 2nd one looks like you did it with you right hand. high detail. I think the 1st one looks pretty cool. like impressionism. I think the 1st one opens up possibilities with abstractness.-Chuck
