You may have noticed a lack of doodling this week. I can explain…

I have tendinitis in my right thumb. It is terribly painful and when it acts up I can’t hold a thing in my hand.

I overdid it this past Sunday. So I am resting the hand as much as possible so it heals up quickly. I have so many projects in the works at the moment, I don’t want to be out of commission any longer than absolutely necessary. So the doodles had to be put on hold for a bit.

How did you overdo it, you may ask?

As best as I can figure out, I sqrootched it tying the cording for the hawk masks I’ve been making. They are a thing of beauty, so hopefully when you see the photo you will agree that missing a few doodles to create these babies is a good thing.

The masks are made from leather and are signed and numbered. Comments encouraged.

Next up – dragon masks. Suggestions for other masks welcome. :)

    I think it’s adorable! The ‘nostrils’ are a bit uneven, but other than that, I like it.}:P

    I think you did very well.

    Oh wow – totally worth the finger tweak – it’s gorgeous! Although I hope you feel better soon!
