you saying you can draw with both hands ???? and this is your worst hand ??? looking blinking great

I agree with Slaine. It's a wonderful drawing and I can't belive it's with your left hand

They are right! sorry to hear about the accident. I always look forward to viewing your work, but you still came through with this one. I have been working on the flowers but i am working two jobs now so having a hard time finishing. I keep peeking in though, i love to see everyones work and the new work too. It a great place "Draw Space" Recover well.

many thanks Slaine + Oana_D

yes, I'm a bit ambidextrous, actually I started on the left hand but the teachers have always said "wrong hand" and beaten with a ruler on the left hand - so I then switched over to the right and now I'm a little ambidextrous

many thanks war7vian

I wish you speedy recovery Raidor.

oh my.. you drew that with your left hand? It's absolutely amazing that you can do magic like that with both hands.. that's a beautiful portrait in making.. great work

wow your really good with your left hand.

I'm left handed but i dont think i can draw with my right hand at all

Raidor, that's beautiful.
Recover quickly!

Wow!
That portret is Amazing!!!!!!!!

Best wishes to you Raidor!
Good portrait you did!

Raidor hope your wrist is feeling better soon. Keep well. What an amazing effort with your left hand. Great skill to have, keep it up.

Hello All,

I'm just peeking around the corner, course I don't have time to really be here this week but man o man great works are been made by many of you. Fantastic.
And Raidor, keep practicing left handed, because that is you really self you might be able to cross borders you never dreamed of. They never hit me but I wasn't allowed to write left-handed either, I never learned it right-handed thow. Get well soon.

Hey I have an idea for a challenge of the week. Let's all make drawings made with our opposite hand.

Creative regards and see you later

Hi Nerine

I think your idea "make drawings made with our opposite hand."

is`nt sooo good , I can remember me at my first attempt to write with right hand = terrible, the result and as of thinking it do
and now even untrained draw with the other hand = will be very frustrating for all

My attempt to - in German - "Maiglöckchen" in pastel drawing

it's snowing here like crazy, so I do not die of boredom, I drew the statue

it`s in charcoal on A4-sketchbookpaper

We've got snow too. Just got rid of it and back it comes!
I tried the kitten with coloured pencils and then made a mess of the background with Inktense. A 'learning process'?

Wow! The portrait is amazing! Thank you very much.

Great flowers! Very vivid.

The statue is also super. You've surprised her smile and everything. Very nice!

Nerine, I think it's a great idea for a challenge. I think it will be lots of fun.At least we must try.

mumwond I must say you brought color to this picture and it's very nice. I like it very much.

I know im in the last minute here, but anyway...
didnt' finnish the hair, i think you understand lol

Wow! Very nice! Thank you!
You're not in the last minute. The challenge is until 30 january.

soo cute amazing

beautiful

The person that will be in the last minute will be me.. lol..

I was going to post my version of our beautiful Oana today but had to finish January ATCs and after I was done I started to feel really under the weather. I sat down with the drawing few minutes ago and my eyes were so watery.. I'm not sure if it's effect of the oncoming cold or am I crying over those curls so I think I'll wait till tomorrow morning.

beautiful drawing!!

Raidor you did a great job on the portrait, the pastel flowers are very nice too. And the statue, you have been busy.

Mumwond great job on the kitten.

O'Flahertie very nice job on the portrait, even without the hair.

Monika sorry to hear you aren't feeling well, hope you recover soon.

Jacqui

Well, it seems my week is coming to an end.

I must say that it was a great experience which I loved very much. I thank you for all your drawings. They are amazing. I hope this post doesn't end here. I want to draw them all and post them here, so feel free to do the same if you want.

Once again thank you.

First a big thank you,Oana , for the beautiful pictures

... further thanks to all of you for the many well wishes, I hope you Monikam feel better now;

wonderful artworks have been drawn this week, ... as soon as my right hand is well again, I'll try myself to draw after the other photos

wish you all the best

Oh no you have to wait.. because I'm coming in at the last minute as promissed.. lol

Thank you all for the well wishes. Not feeling all that well today but I will soon with all the good vibes I'm receving from you all.

Here is my contribution for this week. Not my best work and I admit total defeat over Oana's curls. Now I can wipe my tears and hope for a better week ahead.

very very beautiful

my best wishes

Monikam thank you very much for your drawing. Hope you get well very soon. I heard spring is coming

Thank you so much for hosting this week Oana.. and for the beautiful photos. I'll go back to some of them for sure.

Monika great portrait. You handled the glasses so well, lovely expression and good job on the curls too.

Thank you Oana for the great week and great photos. You did an excellent job.

I did another drawing last night, still have to scan it then I'll post it for you to have a look at.

See you all soon

Jacqui

I had actually done 2, I forgot. Here they are. The blossoms had been neglected so I felt sorry for them. Done in pen and background painted with India Ink. Had another go at that gorgeous kitten, pen and watercolour wash. Have been working through Claudia Nice book on this technique so had to give it a go.
