Total Art Soul - for artists

So glad to see you pulling through and getting back to your artwork! Surgery is such a huge thing. Don't over do it though! =)

Hi again. It has been a long time since I have been here to chat, although I did post a painting a while ago. I am way better, but mobility is still a problem,and my hands are not that good. I have some severe arthritis in both, and have been troubled by something called "trigger finger". It`s when the tendons and ligaments get messed up and your fingers or toes basically get "stuck" in one position, and you have to manually move them. I have it in my left thumb, and right ring finger. I thought it would stop me from painting, but I have found that it doesn`t. I have managed to get 3 paintings finished or close in the past several weeks. The last one is not quite done, but I am going to post it anyway. After I finish it, I will replace it with the completed one. I hope everyone is doing well.

Oh dear sandpiper, that doesn't sound too good. Hope your feeling better soon, its good to hear that your continuing to be creative despite the problems you've been having.
