the cover page of "Art Comes From Your Body", a zine about ergonomics for artists

This zine goes with the lecture I gave at the Milton Artist’s Guild on Friday, January 31st on ergonomics for artists. The main points I wanted to make with this project are:

  • Take steps to protect your joints
  • Use modified tools that make you feel more comfortable with your work
  • Pay attention to how your body feels during your work
    • Notice how your joints gain flexibility during use
    • Notice your muscles gain fatigue over time
  • Observe the differences the tools and settings have on how the body responds to work
