Dutch quadri-dextrous artist creates portraits using her hands and feet
Rajacenna from Rotterdam can draw four realistic artworks simultaneously
She taught herself how to use her hands and feet to stop herself getting bored
The pieces are incredibly technical and can take up to 40 hours to complete
A Dutch artist surely ranks among the best Limb-pressionists after mastering drawing four hyper-realistic portraits simultaneously using her hands and feet.

Rajacenna van Dam, 29, an artist from Rotterdam, can complete up to six illustrations at the same time with every single of her limb holding paintbrushes.
Rajacenna said: 'In 2019 the idea came to me to be more productive because I didn't make any artworks for the previous years due to health issues.

'I didn't practice it at all and just started doing it.'
Rajacenna claims she has taken a scan that revealed extraordinary brain performance while she is drawing different works simultaneously.

She said: 'The connectivity between the left and right brain are totally connected and three times higher than normal.
'I just try to make it look as accurate as possible which is much harder of course when you work on so many simultaneously.'

Her drawings can take as long as 40 hours to complete.

She often works with portraits and her inspiration is the people she draws, who have been public figures such as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Billie Eilish, or Justin Bieber.

'I always draw people that I love and inspire me, for my other work I love to create things from my imagination.'
