The Approaching Storm

By Lotacats Tuesday, June 24, 2008

This is "mouse drawn"...where I draw directly onto a canvas in Paint Shop Pro using a mouse and the program's tools instead of a real brush.  All "mouse" tooled.

 

The Approaching Storm reminds me of how I had be aware on a daily basis when a large amount of pain would be coming my way and how it effects family and friends together. 

 

I've been in Chronic Pain for at least 18 years now and the last 8 years with pain management.  Each bout of some of the "attacks" before pain managemnt was like a horrible storm seemingly unending at times.  All in my family became involved and feeling powerless which is the worst of all.

Wow, to have such a steady hand!  Very nice indeed.  I also draw (with paper though)  I find it takes me quite awhile to finish at times.  Due mostly to having unsteady hands from the pain.  Kudos to you my friend, well done!  Thank you for sharing your beautiful work.  I however have not reached the point of sharing yet, I am a Virgo and alwasy trying to make it perfect.  I know, I know...no need to say it.  I may post someday, I'll let cha know.  Thank you again, nice work.

LOL...I'm a virgo as well.  Since I do T Shirts and have to display stuff or just not sell anything...I got over it.  With this stupid pain disability and being on disability/social security...anything to get a few dollars change for spending.

 

Places like cafepress, zazzle, spreadshirt are great outlets for us at home and get a chance to make a few bucks. 

 

I at least reached the point I have to pay taxes on the income now.  It's not much but it keeps my attention off the pain some and a bit of pride owning my own shop online.

 

Your pix may look really good on a t shirt.
