August Pinup Sketch - Cave Elf Spear Fishing Nude
Added 2019-08-26 22:10:38 +0000 UTCHeya everyone!
First, I want to let everyone know why the work for August has been delayed. As some of you know, I've been having trouble with my back over the last 3 months, making it very painful to sit at my desk. This month, it's gotten a bit worse, so I was forced to spend more time away from my desk. Every time I think it's getting better and I sit down to work, I end up aching again and have to take a break. But, the show must go on, and I don't want to miss a month, entirely.
I've made some changes to my workstation to try and further reduce pain (it's lower back related), like getting a new chair and taking regular breaks, but as you can see by the date, it's been a bit slow going. Curses! TI am really stoked for the idea I have had for August, too! But at any rate, I felt I needed to explain. I would have said something sooner, but every day I've been hopeful and ask myself "is this the day I can get back to work?" Only to find it's still rough going. Changing my chair seems to be helping, so I'll keep taking it one day at a time!
Anyways, this month's art set will be with Cave Elf, as she does some spear fishing in some ruins located inside a seaside cavern. But is there something more dangerous in the water besides the tasty fish? Who can say!
Colors coming soon! :D
As usual, the high resolution files will be sent out after pledges have processed, usually on the 5th of next month.
Thanks for your support!

Yep, regular breaks is tough, for sure! Hardest part, for me! XD

2019-08-27 21:50:38 +0000 UTCThe regular breaks are the hardest really. I always forget myself. Drawing for hours straight. Not good. One of my patron regularly tells me not to overwork myself, and pay attention to my health. This is a very common art problem.

2019-08-27 21:12:26 +0000 UTCYeah, for sure! A standing desk is something I'd like to try. I have bad knees too, from running and working as a logger for years... But it'd be nice to have a desk that can raise or lower as needed. I think the major issue is just having a chair that supports good posture, screens at the proper height, and remembering to take stretching breaks regularly.

2019-08-27 18:46:00 +0000 UTCHave you thought about using a standing desk? I have back problems myself. And it seems like it helped many artists. I'm not sure about it myself. Just a thought.
