This is part of a drawings' series I've made with both hands. I called them "fountains":)

One of my art teachers used to have me draw with only my non-dominant hand.

@samueltyler2 see... there's lots of potential..

@elafina it made my drawings much freer, less controlled.

@samueltyler2 yes, it opens up new directions!

@elafina did/do you study art? I would love to see more of yours.

@samueltyler2 it's a lifelong study..
i did attend the fine arts if that's what you are asking:))

@elafina yes, I took advanced art in high school, but no other classes until I started every decade or so to have a need to create, so took drawing, painting, photography and sculpting.

@samueltyler2 for me what came later in life was/is music...i recently joined the choir and began taking singing classes..i stopped but I want to keep at it..art is my life i suppose? Some days I wish for a very normal life though.... and then i take months long break..

@elafina funny, I took piano and guitar as a child, played guitar through college. When my son was in high school and played in the band, i took up trombone so we could play together. Now I play in 3 bands!
