It accompanies an article by Hope Smith, who writes about being left-handed and creativity — and her nifty party trick, which is the ability to write backwards (like Leonardo da Vinci used to do). What made this illustration job particularly fun was the fact that the writer is left-handed, the art director who assigned this to me was left-handed, and I myself am left-handed.

Read the story here.
