Hi there it's Evey, I'm just curious where do you typically tend to draw I usually draw on my bed with my laptop. I do have a desk but not a proper desk chair so it hurts my back to sit there for ten hours straight. So am I alone drawing all day and sitting on my bed or do a lot of you other lovely artists do as well? Please let me know my curiosity has gotten to me!

I have been using a collapsible table (the kind that is commonly found in classrooms, office, and workshops) to do my artwork. Although I have a desk, it is occupied by computers, so it is not available for other purposes. Although I have a chair, I stand up while working; I find it rather awkward to do artwork while being seated.

ah sounds interesting I stood up alot in my life drawing class but it just felt awkward i guess cause I'm not use to id I'm use to sitting and what not but I should try standing when doing big pieces like when I use my charcoal paper (my favorite) but I need something to prop it up lol

Well I don't draw that much, and if I do it's just sketches; so I do that wherever, but primarily at my computer desk or on the couch. For painting I have a studio in my basement.

But at the moment I'm living in a tent and paint on my bed. It gets very uncomfortable though.

I have a bed table. A tiny little foldable table that sits right on my bed, allowing me to use the computer without having the weight of the laptop (my laptop is almost 10 lbs, and I get uncomfortable after 30 minutes!) on my lap. I do everything on my bed. Homework, gaming, drawing, etc. Of course I switch between desk and bed since my butt does start hurting after a few hours on the bed, as I'm sitting right on my tail bone.

My tablet goes on my lap, and I just draw on my lap!

As for sitting on the a desk, I have one of those big comfy chairs, so I take another chair, put it across the table, put my feet up, and lean back whenever my back starts hurting from sitting straight.
