ok, me and my friends are a bunch of freaks alright? lets get over it. Last year I didn't had any gift for my friend Mariano, a paleontology student, on his birthday, so I gave him a coupon good for a drawing... <_< like a year later he still had it on its wallet.. So, months passed by till one day he told me he had spent a day without using his thumbs. Thumbs are an interesting thing, specially for us biology freaks, because we humans think they are such and important thing, just because most animals don't have them and are supposed to allow us to develop our technology and stuff. I had also made another weird ass experiment like that only I used a blindfold ( a big, bad blindfold with some sort of black painted googles inside) for 2 days. So we agreeded to try each others anatomical deprivation experience, but he told me I wouldn't be able to draw without my thumbs. Now I've proven him wrong. This idea gave me the chance to try drawing without thumbs AND give him his birthday present with and unique participation on his side. It was easier than I espected, there are several ways to hold a pencil without using your thumbs. Coincidentally the dinosaur he wanted me to draw months before he even had the no-thumbs thing in mind was and animal with only 1 finger on each arm, the only number it is impossible to draw without any mechanical assistance.
Che, Mariano, a ver si pasas por el taller a buscar tu dibujo <<
Yes, I've thought about this before. You can do an awful lot without thumbs. I even remember a woman on Ripley's Believe It Or Not (I think) that could do a lot of things with her feet that most people could only do with their hands.
Still, this picture is pretty amazing work for no thumbs.
Maybe we should expand this experiment. Let's see if we can create fire or spearheads without thumbs, too. I have feeling that, even if we didn't have thumbs, we'd still be able to make technology. Afterall, our fingers can oppose to the palms of our hands for grip as well.
Mira vos, hasta sin pulgares sos un capo dibujando... maldito ¬¬
^^ jeje, excelente dibujo.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
