How do you sit while drawing?

[Raven_C]

Well it's hard to explain without a drawing, but my legs always end up in this position...

[joannekwan]

Yeah I sit slumped in an office chair at my desk at home for digital drawing. But when I'm drawing in my sketchbook I'm usually on the couch sitting cross-legged.

I'm f@#$ed even before I get osteoporosis.

Best drink some Anlene then,gotta keep those bones strong! Also,LOL!!

I got injured on my center back waist,so now i have to put some extra cushion on my bottom,as well as a pillow on my back...and i have the same habit as @raintowns LOL i hope this doesnt give me additional problem on my back XD

[scythe]

I don't. I float 2 and half feet above the ground. It's something I picked up travelling in India.

No need to brag

[VermillionWorks]

Well, that would definitely take the pressure off.
Haha, wasn't expecting to see drawings in this topic! Awesome. XD

[AnnaLandin]

I sit with my elbows on the desk, with my cintiq in a pretty upright position (like working at an easel), and I tend to fold up my right leg and kind of... sit on my foot. Which, when I've been drawing for a couple of hours, seriously restricts bloodflow! XD Good thing I get up and walk around every now and then.

I generally sit in a fetal position crying
I don't get a lot drawn

[Iron]

You're not alone in this!

[Menbung]

To be honest I mostly draw laying down on my stomach, habit of mine, I even ink traditionally laying down like that @_@ .

But when I'm sitting and drawing I sit like Zelkats hahahahaha, only that I look at the paper and not at a laptop/pc, ahahaha I look like a little monster, my face so close to the paper and my back all hunched oo.oo .

It's so bad for me, I need to work on that 8_8

[winglesscomic]

I have a spine condition which makes it painful to sit upright in chairs so I'm usually slouching. However I sometimes catch myself doing what Zelkats depicted, I don't know why - whenever I notice it, I sit back to my default position and ask "why the hell was I doing that?"

[Doubtcent]

I try my best to sit upright, but whenever I go in for details I lean forward instinctively, even though I could just zoom in. While sitting, really in any manner, I have my legs crossed while they're touching the floor.

[Irrel]

I try really hard to sit with both feet on the ground but I always end up cross legged on my computer chair which makes my hips hurt

[hades]

surprised no one posted this yet.
Didn't draw it. <3

[ametueraspirant]

I sit on the floor against the wall, and change position every 34 seconds.

[facemeltingsolos]

With traditional media I tend to sit back with the sketch pad in my lap, or I'll lay it flat on the desk. Sometimes I'll sit at the couch and use my laptop lap desk which has a bit of an incline. Then of course there's the awkward standing position when I go for a walk at a park or the zoo.

When using the tablet, I tend to run out of desk space (too much music equipment) and hold the pad in my hand or in my lap, because apparently I don't think playing the guitar is giving me carpal tunnel fast enough. Maybe a change is in order...

How society thinks I sit...

How I think I sit...

How I really sit...

[igneriss]

When I'm drawing, I always end up sitting like L from Death Note.
