Hi there, this is MEL.
I'm a graphic designer and illustrator from Mexico, so probably I will post part of my work here and some cool works from other people I admire.
And of course, lots and lots of fandom and crazy things, so ENJOY YOUR STAY!
Helpful and Preventative Stretches for Writers, Artists, and Gamers ๐ช๐จโ๐ฎ
If you type, write, draw, game, or generally use your hands a lot (especially if youโre prone to RSI or Carpal Tunnel!) try these stretches as both a preventative measure, and on the spot relief. Take care of yourself and your body, friends!
Start with hands up, fingers stretched out. ย Stretch your thumb as far as you can over your palm. Hold and repeat 4 times.
Touch each finger to your thumb. Hold each for 30 seconds. Repeat on each hand 4 times.
Start with a fist. Open half way, hold for 2 seconds. Stretch fingers out, hold for 2 seconds. Repeat 4 times.
Start with one arm out, palm up. Pull your fingers back with your other hand. Hold for 10 seconds. Do the same with your other hand. Repeat 4 times
Start with arms up, palms out. Bend wrists down until you feel the stretch, but keep your fingers loose. Hold 10 seconds. Bend wrist upwards, until you feel it in your wrist and arm. Hold 10 seconds. Repeat 4 times.
