Oh Lord it's always something, My right thumb is injured and I have a condition called Trigger Thumb (no guns were involved). I cannot sketch with my left hand so here is a sketch of my left thumb - My right thumb is splinted but thankfully I can still sketch. If imobilizing it does not bring back normal function I may have to have a bit of surgery - fingers crossed that is not the case ;-)

OMG, the worse thing that can happen to an artist. Thank goodness you have the use of it. Darn bracelets anyway.
Great sketch for a painful injury. Hope it all goes away soon!
Like I told Dianne (Desiree) some time back when she had a finger injury......Just chop it off! But alas, this is a thumb and if you do that I think you turn into an ape because the thumb is what distinguishes us from them? Am I right? Imagine the possibilities....Ape Woman Artist....the $$$$ you could make from your sketching!!! The lecture circuit, book signings (so hold the pen between your index and middle figner) and of course you'll need a personal secretary for all this........How about Blind Art Woman from California?
Oh great hand sketch, story and like the everready bunny....You keep on going!!!!! Get Better!!!
I'm sorry to hear about your poor thumb. Thank God, it's the thumb though so you can still write and paint. Love the painting of your Left thumb ;)
OUCH IS RIGHT!!! I HOPE IT HEALS QUICKLY, SANDY -- AND STILL, YOUR SKETCH IS FABULOUS!
Nice hand, and I like the Ouch!
Thank you all for the sympahty- and Marta, you are too wacky - Yes I would make an adorable ape woman/artist - I will probably consider that by next week!
I wonder if dog slobbers would help that out.
