Yeah, that's the posture I need to have. It's a bit hard to achieve because I'm physically disabled (which I don't talk about much) and tire so quickly. I can still do some things but sitting up for long periods is hard and standing for too long could make me pass out.
A lot of the time I'm lying on my side drawing digital on my phone which while more supported is pretty bad for my posture and wrist. But you know.
Traditional is apparently better for learning though. At some point I may be able to get a recliner and a swing over desk or something
Edit: Ahahaha... It looks like he's standing contrapposto
😊 yes, it's a good pose for standing for long periods, like models do.
Try to get a chair that allows you to use your shoulders. Also learn to support your working hand.
I rest my working hand on my other wrist. ( I work on a desk ) My daughter who is a make up artist rests/steadies her hand with her pinky finger resting on her subject's face

Thanks, I saved the video.
I'm not really able to use a normal desk right now but I'll see about good chairs
hugs, just keep looking and researching art equipment, there is so much out there to help artists 😘
