Thank you for this post. I’m 2 weeks into my 12 weeks in a cast for a scaphoid fracture and struggling with how to last that long without my art. The road ahead looks long but I appreciate reading how you managed it and I feel more positive about new skills I can learn along the way.
Thanks

In reply to Heather Mazur. Heather, I'm so glad this post could help you be optimistic about your broken finger! It will likely feel a little different going forward, but you'll adapt. There a lots of ways to draw, and I'm confident you'll find a technique for moving the pencil with confidence again that works for you. Practice!

I am also an artist who uses mostly pencils and am a teenager. I may not be as great as you but I do love drawing very much. It broke my heart to have negative thoughts about never drawing again. I have finals in a week, great timing! But I was scouring the internet trying to find out if I could ever draw again after breaking a finger. After reading your story, I realized there was hope for my crippled pointer finger. Thank you for giving me hope for my hand again.

That story was almost scary. Lol. But I understand fully about figuring out how to get ones coordination back after an experience like that.

I’m currently recovering from broken index and middle fingers on my able hand and your article fills me with hope. I’m at the stage when it’s almost healed but the joints won’t bend and my fingers don’t feel like mine at all. Physio is painful but I need to get back to normal
ASAP. Patience and perseverance.
