RSI or bust

Trust my shoulders to give me the worst pain and inflammation today, on Drawing Day. I nearly cried when I sat down to draw this afternoon.

    The pain was so worth it!

  • Natalie Perkins replied

    lol, you probably can’t tell but this was drawn on a smaller scale than my other drawings. It measures about 15×15cm!

    Love the lace doiley print in the background- I’m so sorry it is painful for you to work, but I am so impressed with what you produce!

  • Natalie Perkins replied

    Thank you!
    I actually have a whole heap of paper doilies and I was experimenting with using them as stencils!

    This looks great, nice experiment and I really like the ‘or bust’ text. I can relate, it’s usually rsi but on drawing day it was stupid shaky hands instead.

  • Natalie Perkins replied

    It’s frustrating when you can’t do what you want to do due to physical limitations, isn’t it?
