Helpful and Preventative Stretches for Writers, Artists, and Gamers 💪🎨✍🎮

If you type, write, draw, game, or generally use your hands a lot (especially if you’re prone to RSI or Carpal Tunnel!) try these stretches as both a preventative measure, and on the spot relief. Take care of yourself and your body, friends!

Start with hands up, fingers stretched out.  Stretch your thumb as far as you can over your palm. Hold and repeat 4 times.

Touch each finger to your thumb. Hold each for 30 seconds. Repeat on each hand 4 times.

Start with a fist. Open half way, hold for 2 seconds. Stretch fingers out, hold for 2 seconds. Repeat 4 times.

Start with one arm out, palm up. Pull your fingers back with your other hand. Hold for 10 seconds. Do the same with your other hand. Repeat 4 times

Start with arms up, palms out. Bend wrists down until you feel the stretch, but keep your fingers loose. Hold 10 seconds. Bend wrist upwards, until you feel it in your wrist and arm. Hold 10 seconds. Repeat 4 times.

i'm at the point where i am trying to distort the image in different ways to make it actually look like the reference. it is not working.

I've saved a lot of art over the years to my personal art inspiration folder. sometimes I track down the posts these images are from, or they cross my feed in the wild, and I'm often surprised by how little notes or engagement they have - or at least the numbers feel wildly disproportionate to the amount of room these pictures took up in my head. and it's especially true of original content, or stuff from small and niche fandoms. entire months of my life I've thought about and studied the way that something someone else drew with less than 100 notes made me feel.

so what I'm saying is, if there's something you made that you feel really proud of, but didn't get as much attention as you would've liked? don't worry. at least one gay artist somewhere probably downloaded it and has been rotating it over and over in their head
