ABSTRACT:
The problem of limited arm and wrist motor capabilities in certain persons as they relate to producing works of art such as paintings is solved by the art aid devices of the present invention. These include two forms of hollow cylindrical bodies (12, 32) adapted to be releasably connected to a table top (16) adjacent a wheelchair (24) for supporting a work sheet and limiting arm movement, a sheet of material (42) with a slot (43) of a selected shape above a table top supporting a work sheet, and a sheet of material (62) with a slot (63) in which a flanged arm-receiving roller (64) is moved forwardly of a work sheet to guide the arm through a selected but limited range of movement.
