So the question is this...

When painting, do you use your left hand or right hand as the brush hand? Quite simply are you regular or sinister? Vote now...

This is me, a cheeky leftie!

I am, suffice to say, a left handed painter.

On a serious note, do you know anyone with any disability and has to paint in another way? That\'s a serious question ;)

By the way, let\'s hope the US intelligence don\'t pick up on this thread. They\'ll probably think it\'s to do with communists or something (think about it...)

Marvellous, now form an orderly queue everybody!

Rev :innocent:

Greetings from the sinister side of painting.... ....MUA HA HAHAHHA :cough::cough::hack::wheeze::p
Yes, I\'m a leftie also, and I\'m not sure if you\'d call this a disability, exactly, but my hands shake sometimes when I try to do anythting detailed. Yet I still do freeehand with a brush, ain\'t I a dope.:D:p

Just plain old right hand :)

Hello to you all, evil, sinister lefties :D
Well I have to say that I\'m also a nice old regular right hand painter :innocent:
Has for hand shaking that also happens to me somtimes, but just when I\'m trying not to have them shake so I can make that really small eye :D
But no matter what i do they always shake when i get near that eye :bouncy:
Anyway you got me thinking with your question, what do you do when you get too old to be able to paint, must be really sad :( Hummm I\'ll just pray that I wont be hooked to mini painting anymore, anyway I have a long way to go until then :D

I remember there\'s something in the wa your hands are connected to areras of your brain, do that lefties are connected to teh right lobe which had more artistic ideas, which may explain it... However for all you lefties, the old urban myth is right, lefties are more prone to die earlier than righties, mainly from traffic accendents.

I like to think I\'m ambidextrous, so I don\'t suffer penalies for having a weapon in my off hand.... :p

Too many bloody kack-handed types around here if you ask me.

lol:D

Only kidding before someone gets the wrong impression! :rolleyes:

I\'m a good old righty (just like my politics lol).

What about one of the Perry twins who had his hand blown off when he was loading a cannon at one of those historic re-enactment events?! Don\'t know if it was left or right, or which he used, but he got himself a claw or something and was back sculpting shortly after the accident! Not quite painting, but still pretty impressive whichever hand he lost!

I do everything with my right hand, though some things require both! :eek:lol

i\'m a righty. and chrispy\'s right lefties are more likely to die - especially in electrical accidents as they hold the appliance with their left hand and it shorts out through the left hand side of their body, through their heart (zzzzzap!). not that i mean to worry you kack handers out there - just hold electrical things with you right hand. ps rev - where abouts in cardiff are you? - i\'m currently at uni there

Yikes Rev, are we ever in the minority!:eek: Is this \"kackhander\" thing that everbody says a British thing? Here in the U.S. we\'re called Southpaws.

Anarchic Rightie, over here

What would be really interesting, though, is to know how many of the Top 50 are either Righties or Lefties.
