Southpaw
I attend life-drawing classes in Bethnal Green on Monday evenings. Last week at the class the tutor asked us to make a few quick sketches with the hand you don't regularly use (for me that's the left). I was initially dubious about the idea but was really pleasantly surprised by the results. In many ways this technique helped me to draw more honestly, forcing me to record the forms I could see, not the forms that I thought I should see.

These are really nice drawings. If I try to draw with my other hand it turns out looking like the scribblings of an arthritic chimpanzee using their feet to hold the pencil...
