Art therapy yields Grrreat Result

This is the first time I have written on this site, and the first time I have written publicly about my stroke.  It is the first of many blog posts, and I am immensely grateful to anyone who would take the time to read it.

Speaking of firsts, since the stroke 3 years ago, I decided to try painting on pottery to try and rehabilitate my right hand.  It was so slow and frustrating, but it is paying off, as you can see from the photos of my Tiger Mask that I completed after 2 years of painting on tiles and other pieces. It took me many, many, many hours to paint, but it was worth it!

If you care to see this for real, it is on display at Firefly Pottery in Portsmouth Nh.  http://fireflypottery.net

There has been quite a lot of improvement on many things,  and I look forward to keeping you posted on how I’m doing and how the recovery is going.   Thanks for reading!
