Apologies if this has been raised before, but I recently saw a live-drawing stream with Chris, and I couldn't help but notice something.... WEIRD!
HOLY AUTISM BATMAN!!! WHAT SORT OF UNHOLY PEN GRIP IS THIS?!?
I'm not going to break my fingers trying to hold on to a pen like this, but WTF IS THIS?!?
It doesn't matter if he's doing the outlines with a pen or coloring, he's using the same autistic death grip on every writing instrument.
Cue the :autism: replies, but can anyone tell me what's going on here? Is this cause he's left handed? Surely not.
Could any art-fags explain this?! And the possible consequences? Is this why Chris's drawings hasn't improved in two decades and why his art is still horrible.
How the he'll did he learn that? Surely someone must have mentioned to him that this isn't how you hold a pen?!?
Also: I noticed that he looks up older drawings constantly.
Almost as if he can't remember how to draw them?
Is that something artists do?
My first thought was: "He's been drawing these for twenty years, surely he knows what they look like, without browsing the back catalogue..."
But I'm not much of an artist myself, so have no idea whether that's completely normal or not. If I'd have to guess, I'd have to go with nope, this is not normal, this is the autisimo that makes Chris unable to remember a face. Thoughts?
