    😊 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

    a painter rests/steadies his hand using a dowel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWFDQqu75iA

      Thanks, I saved the video.

      I’m not really able to use a normal desk right now but I’ll see about good chairs
