Weekly Challenge #13 | Non-Dominatrix

This week's challenge at Laura Harms' I Am the Diva Blog is is to complete a tile or Zentangle inspired piece using ONLY your NON-DOMINANT hand. Complete details can be found here. While it was feared that this challenge might strike fear and horror in us regulars, I embraced the challenge slowly and happily.

My family carries the gene that makes the use of both hands equally, easier.

ambidextrous [ˌæmbɪˈdɛkstrəs] adj 1. equally expert with each hand 2. Informal highly skilled or adept.

My grandfather on my mother's side was the first one to show this skill in his welding. He could weld equally  well with both hands. My abilities to play the piano and the violin and my ability to do lots of things around the house with both hands I attribute to my grandfather passing the gene down to me. My son has these abilities strongly--he can bat on both sides in baseball, he was able to [and probably still is, I just haven't quizzed him lately] write equally with both hands.

So, fear of doing the challenge was not an issue...failing to show my ability to do the above described feats of genetic skill became my fear. You see, I always have found this fascinating, but have not maintained my genetic skills, which like anything is only good if you practice! So off I went, left-handed, drawing doodles on my little designated square. I like what I ended up with...not too wonky for the left-hand. I hope you agree!

Thank you for looking!
