Artist's Comments

Woke up this morning and couldn't feel my arm from the elbow down.
Freaked out, naturally.
Sat up, it just kinda flopped over and I couldn't move it.

So I ended up massaging it for a while (20-25 seconds) before I got a tingling in my palm that said I hadn't lost complete feeling in my right arm. (By the way, 20-25 seconds is a long time when you think that you have an arm that is half paralized...particuarily for an artist.)

Then, to make sure I could still do my thing, I drew this.
Turned out better than I thought it would've.

I am so thankful to not have my dominant hand paralized.

Used - Toothpicks & black, pink, purple, white, gold ink
Time - 3 hours (max)

P.S. - This is going to be a series, actually. Look out for some more of these!

Hahaha. that happens to me all the time. Actually even worse. I often wake up and cant move at all! Scares the living hell outa me. I usually sit there for about 30 seconds and then have to throw myself out of bed.

Anyways interesting use of different colors. It looks like ink. Looks cool!

lol you prolly just slept on it and it fell asleep. I've never been seriously concerned about any of my limbs falling asleep despite being a rather serious drummer/percussion player. I have to be concerned about all of my limbs...

Very awesome! I LOOVE how this turned out. :D

My arm did that too this morning. I didn't freak so much, but I started poking at it until I could move it! xD Great minds paralyze arms!
