Guess what? I went to the doctor to double check my thumb, took my Xrays (that now come in a CD, news to me) and.... it was broken! Aggh! They told me it wasn't but I knew something was wrong, after so many months of pain, stiffness and overall annoyance.
Now I will need a thumb-holder thingamabob (Can't remember the name) and just let it be.
Also will get some acupuncture too just to help with the pain :o/
Enough complains. Now for the hearts:
I made this some time ago with paperclay. Turned out with very nice texture. I will be giving it for a blog giveaway in a future post towards the end of the 31 hearts challenge. More info later!
As for art, here is an image of the sketch I'm working on:

It's hot over here too Martha. Look forward to the video. Love that heart you made, it's awesome. Happy Paint Friday amiga. Have a great weekend.
Gosh, and I was so excited that it finally got to 80 here... we're just a bit cooler in the Pacific Northwest. :) I love that heart and your 31 heart project. Wish I'd seen it earlier, I adore hearts of all types. Happy PPF!
You can still join! not a problem ♥
sorry about your thumb, glad it doesn't seem to be getting in the way of your drawing or painting.
All so nicely done. HPPF!
OMG...how long have you been working with a broken thumb...and who told you it wasn't broken???
Gorgeous lady in your sketch, and the heart is beyond wonderful :D XXX
That painting is going to be great and hope your thumb starts to heal quickly... that would be horridly painful... sending healing thoughts your way...xx
I might actually paint a few hearts today!

Crap! A broken thumb! Hope it heals soon. And I love your paper clay heart. :)
Wonderful 'work in progress' creations ~~ thanks ^_^ (A Creative Harbor)
You should all come to Iceland... we have had the best summer ever, sun every day about 15°c and it feels so good.
Love your drawing, so beautiful, I wish I could draw like this.
Your portrait is looking great. I love your 31 Hearts project. What a great way to lift your spirits.
Hope your thumb heals quickly.
We are melting over here in the valley aren't we? But I think you guys have at least the Delta, we just get the dust lol
Can't wait to see your sketch evolve! So sorry to hear about your thumb. You always think of such creative challenges....Loving the heart challenge! Happy PPF! :-) ~ Rhonda
Apparently, close to a year :oP the Urgent care said it wasn't broken, after looking at the broken XRays. Figures....
We were 31 C at 7:30 this morning... imagine? Our winter is about your summer weather, except we get a few Zero or -1 maybe 3 or 5 nights during the winter. I'm sure you get a lot colder that that!
Sorry to hear about your thumb. I hope it's better soon. Your sketch is looking good!
Thank you!
fabulous portrait! as a coffee lover, I approve :D
Ouch... I am so glad you got X-Rays done, I hope it will heal properly. Hope it cools down for you!
Beautiful heart! And the sketch is beautiful too!
Almost a year with a broken thumb!!! Errrrr...that would make me angry! Please take care! I love the heart you made!! The sketch is wonderful!
What a great line drawing. I can't wait to see when you paint it. Blessings!
we had that unbearably hot weaither last week but it's finally cooled down here. hope the cooler weather is headed your way.
your sketch is wonderful... can't wait to watch as you turn it into a painting!
Great Sketch! Sending you some cooler weather from Australia -it's been cold and rainy here lately, you can have some of ours, we wont miss it:) It may take some time to get there though. Also sending you wishes for a speedy recovery and pain free times. Tracey xx
The heat has been bad this year!! You know it's been REAL HOT when you walk outside and it's 95° out and you comment on how nice and cool it feels today :0/
Wouldn't it be great? I send you some heat, you send me some cool air... we were 46 Celsius today! 115 F
Feels almost as hot as last time we went to Las Vegas, you really feel like a piece of bacon hahaah
Exactly! When you feel like 95 is nice, you can just tell it was so much hotter before :o/
Oh, what a happy wonderful sketch (of course she's drinking coffee :) ) Grief so many people are coming to So. FL to cool off. We usually go north to cool off, but I guess we actually do live in paradise. . . . winter and summer.. .. We do have 2-seasons. Blessings, Janet PPF
I hope to see your girl of the Cup finished...Saludos
Oh my gosh! So long with a broken thumb. How brave of you to still be creating such great work. An inspiration to be sure! And I was geekily excited to see NZ mentioned!! :)
The drawing looks like it will be wonderful when done. Cant wait to see it done. I sure hope the thumb is on the hand you dont draw and paint with. HPPF
I don't know if being brave or just plain stubborn ;o]
And I have to say, I have never met a person from NZ I didn't like. You stay warm ok?
Oh, no, of course it is in my right thumb, my writing hand :oS (My "throw books at spiders while pointing the thumb out" hand)
