Rheumatoid Arthritis Guy Sculpture
Yesterday on Facebook I posted:
You know you have RA when the Christmas gift that you’re most excited about is a bucket of multicolored modeling clay. (It’s not just fun; it’s also an excellent way to strengthen my arthritic hands!)

This message inspired private responses from multiple readers, including an actual modeling clay artist who sent me photos of the lovely creation shown below. The larger hands pays homage to Show Us Your Hands!, while the little superhero in the middle, well…I think we all know who he is!

Thank you, Donna. Not only did you put a huge smile on my face, but you also now have me dreaming of short animated features, Wallace & Gromit style!
Stay tuned…for the next adventure of Rheumatoid Arthritis Guy!

I LOVE this! Donna, awesome job.
What a tribute to RA Guy!!! It looks just like him/you
You did a fantastic job Donna. Thanks for sharing..both of you!! It brought a huge smile to my morning.
Wow, that’s awesome!
I’ve never thought of using modeling clay for hand strengthing, I’ll have to try it.

Awesome! What brand of clay is this?
It’s called Sculpey Crafting Clay, oven bake clay. Found in the children’s craft section at walmart.
