Added 2021-09-17 19:36:21 +0000 UTClike, yeah.
small, less fun announcement; it's possible I have this ulnar nerve neuropathy thing going on, which is to say, I can still draw but i gotta take it easy for a few weeks;
I don't know how much this will effect the art amount for this month, but just to be safe probably expect significantly less art than usual because I want to get ahead of this thing;
please send good vibes my arms way lol
to sort of round that out; i'll do that thing again where i include some oldies/favs and possibly some unfinished sketches/ideas that never got off the ground
anyway so, yeah hope everyone has a good weekend<33

2021-09-19 21:14:56 +0000 UTCOf course! There's also dozens of videos with stretches focused on artists' needs, but rest is king when there's pain involved

2021-09-19 17:45:55 +0000 UTCCouple of years ago I got tennis elbow without having played tennis once, thanks to a work related muscular imbalance and after physical therapy it disappeared but I still do the exercises daily to avoid it coming back. Mine were done using a rubber band, but I've seen what they do in this video is very similar: https://youtu.be/R37_inXpZ3g

2021-09-19 15:01:24 +0000 UTCyeah and tbh i think that is what got me?? i work in a very low chair, 'cause well it's comfortable but, it does leave way for me to be in very awkward positions without realizing smh so i'm going to try working a different space, and that should help too c: yeah, i had some arm stretches i do before i start drawing, but i guess they were enough lol so i've been researching a little about some other stretches to do, and hopefully that helps c: thankfully there hasn't been too much pain? it's not like, consistent pain, sometimes i'll get some pain but mostly it's just a general discomfort and tiring out pretty fast; if you have any stretches/exercises you can recommend i would gladly accept those c: right now i have to work on keeping my elbow straight as much as i can, in a few weeks it should be cleared up and i should be able to start working on elbow strengthening things too c:

2021-09-18 11:34:31 +0000 UTCYeah, I saw that drawing can be extremely taxing on the body, especially if some postural habits are less than good and piling damage without even knowing. I guess it's kinda obvious, but apart from current pain, have you tried preventive exercises to strengthen back/ams/elbows/wrists?
