Art free form

I painted the background of the wooden hook in the last class. In this class, I first painted some practice rounds on wax paper. Then I transfered the vine and flower placements in pencil. I then painted the vines and leaves free form. Then the flowers, all with breaks in between. And did I mention it is with my left hand? I got a lot of guidance from my instructor, Laura. There are three other people in the class that meets twice a month.

Physical Therapy

There are all kinds of diabolical contraptions for me to work out on in therapy. Thankfully it's only for an hour. I use the leg extension with just the left leg "so I don't cheat", says one of my therapists. I use a single-point cane (in back) when I'm at the facility.
