Drawesome - Challenge 8 - Non dominant hand

Challenge 8 is to try doing some art using your non dominant hand.

I don't think I've tried drawing left handed since I was at school so this was interesting!
Especially as I forgot that using the left hand I should have started the picture on the right and worked across, instead of on the left - which meant I spent most of the time trying to lift my hand to avoid smudging the damn thing!

It's supposed to be Captain America. The other interesting thing, apart from how wobbly my hand is, drawing lines, is how basically I made the same errors I do with my right hand. His face is still too long and thin... It was actually easier to control the pencil when I held it on its side more.

Wow, despite the left handedness (I can't do that to save my life!) it's not bad at all. I know the face is a little to elongated, but not by much, the nose makes it very recognisable!!

Hermine's pointed out he looks like Nicolas Cage - she's right LOL!! I used to practice writing and drawing with my left hand when I was a kid - in case I broke my arm. I never did and then I haven't tried anything different left handed for about 40 years. It's soooooo wobbly!
