when you don’t do a warm up and go straight into lineart and your hand does the thing

Thats a sign of inflammation of the wrist called carpel tunnel . I had surgery because it got so bad I couldn’t draw anymore.

Yikes D8.

That’s why it’s so important to do stretches and draw with your whole arm (ok, arguably hard with a tablet versus a big gorgeous easel) and etc but I forgot today bc I am a moron and it was great

?????

people warm up to draw? like… how?

not an artists but climbing hand and lower arm exercises;

trying to find more and better diagrams for other stretches but yeah it’s super important if your gonna be using your arms a lot.

Adding this important video for all the artists out there, take care of your hands ♥

Also adding that the surgery isn’t that bad as far as surgeries go.  You will be able to continue using your hands afterward.  I have had so many of my fellow artists panic about thinking they might have to have surgery- but my mother had it in both hands and while fine motor skills took about a month to return, she’s fine.
