Doodling through Recovery



Doodling, nothing serious. Been out for the count in a drug induced stupor for over a week. Trying not to overdo it and set back shoulder recovery.

Anita,

Soooo sorry to hear about your shoulder injury! I hope and pray that your recovery is swift.

Now would be a 'great' time to oil paint with your left hand. Your drawing ability and pastel skills are amazing.... so delicate and beautiful. I will visit frequently :)

Re: my interior painting ..... I have had some interruptions this week, but hope to get back at it this afternoon after work. Thanks so much for following along, and for your input.

Rose Welty said...

That hardly looks like doodling to me...very nice Anita.

Mary said...

Anita, this is so beautiful. I love your portraits!

I hope your shoulder is healed soon, these physical pains can cause such set backs in one's art work. With therapy and certain exercises for it once it is allowed, it will soon be back in shape.

If this is your doodle, then you're on the road to recovery. Don't overdo it yet.

Carole - thank you for taking the time to comment. I should do something left handed - maybe today!

Thank you Rose!

Mary - I am trying not to overuse it. Had a shot of lidocaine and steroids this week and that seems to be helping a little.

Jeanette - thank you.

Billie - your doodles are way better!

Dinah - thanks for commenting.

Terri - you always make me laugh!

Teresa Mallen said...

Anita, a very nice doodle indeed! Stay on the mend...

Nick said...

Lidocaine is great, and it seems to inspire some very impressive doodling....send a few tabs this way, will ya? :)

Robyn Sinclair said...

Oh, I see, it's the drugs you use for drawing that make the difference! I'd better get some.

Lovely to see you back and on the mend.

Anita said...

Teresa - every day a little better, thank you. Hoping to be back in full swing next week.

Nick - the lidocaine was nicer than the codeine - wow was that a purple haze!

Robyn - I don't recommend it! Slowly getting back to normal.

Stacy said...

I'm behind on my commenting so everyone else has already expressed astonishment at your doodle! I agree with everything they said! But for the record, Robyn was the only one who made me lol. I do hope your shoulder is mending quickly.
