@mariyadelano oh, i can't really praise my genes for many reasons, but on this topic I'm lucky. I don't stretch or do special routine. I usually have the "crepes" effect, i sketch and the first one is always bad, rigid, not in sync. Knowing it will be bad anyway helps me to just get into it without to much anticipation or expectations. It's certainly a warm-up necessary step. I try to get it done at breakfast, (but i'm bad at routine, more like chaos) so i feel ready for the day.

@davidrevoy do you think about your posture much? I notice in the airplane picture you're holding the tablet with the other hand and keeping it at a good angle

Do you try to keep your back straight?

@mariyadelano I probably adapt all of that unconsciously. Regarding to drawing, i'm never perfectionnist about condition: seat, light, paper... It's always a "now or never" and "deal with the situation" feeling. It helps on signing session, or plein air drawing.
Oh yes for lifting the display at an angle. It helped me on the plane, maybe because not a lot of room to bend my neck above the device. I'll try to DIY litlle legs I can fold on this device 😁

@davidrevoy I think I need to pay more attention to how much I'm bending my neck 👀

I am a bit envious that you don't have to think of these things much, but we've all got our own unique health problems 😅

Appreciate you answering all of my questions here!
