Artist’s Mark?
August 26, 2008Last Thursday night while eating dinner with friends, Marvin (welcome to i.ph by the way!) noticed the ‘mark’ on my wrist. I told him that I like it and I call it the “artist’s mark” because i got it by drawing on the PC so much. Shelly got one too which makes Marv wonder why he doesn’t have one.
Violinists have their marks on their neck, writers on their middle finger, I think if someone uses their Wacom or is drawing on the table too much then they will get the mark on the same spot too. I’ve seen a couple of artists who were trying to avoid having this by wearing gloves, arm bands, or using a wrist cushion. But for me, I like it especially when it’s really red. Sorry if anyone got grossed-out by the image above.
I’d rather call it an “artist’s mark” than a callus you know? Mwahaha!
