My Review of the FlexiSpot M2 35" Sit/Stand Desktop

My Review of the FlexiSpot M2 35" Sit/Stand Desktop

I am currently reviewing the FlexiSpot M2 35" Sit/Stand Desktop. It is an amazing product for people that are at their workstations for long hours. As artists and designers we find ourselves in this situation a lot.

I have been known to draw for 14 hours on some days when deadlines are looming and a setup like this can be a lifesaver. Whenever my lower back would start to hurt I would have to stop and walk around for a while before I could get back to drawing but now with this setup I can simply adjust it to stand up and alleviate my back pain. The health benefits to a product like this one are huge and the productivity is amazing as well because you stay in the moment of creating longer.

It has a huge range of lift to the unit and the real benefit is that it lifts everything together in one motion and it is completely stable so that you can draw and work without the distraction of your devices moving.

They also gave ample room to the work area and the keyboard tray to house multiple devices like you see here. I have my Mac keyboard, mouse, and Intuos 4 with room to spare. They even incorporated a slot for your phone or iPad to sit. Kudos! ;)

This is the FlexiSpot M2 35" Sit/Stand Desktop. They have larger and smaller unit to suit your needs. They are built well and there is only a small amount of assembly that took me about 15 minutes to complete. I give this product a 5 star review from my perspective as an artist/designer.

How to Improve Your Figure Drawing Course -- Update

-- How to Improve Your Figure Drawing Course Update --

Quick update on my Figure Drawing course on Udemy!

If you have taken the course ( or possibly thinking about it ) you might be happy to know that I added 3 NEW lectures to the course. Adding another full hour of video content. These new lessons are on drawing and shading muscular arms. These are a little more geared for comic artists but I still feel it can be a great exercise for most art styles.

I will also be adding a few more lectures on drawing female arm poses since I had a student mention it would help to make the course more well rounded. I am always happy to get feedback to make these products better for everyone.

Like all my other content you get the art files to work along with. If you have any questions about the course content I am always here to help!

Here is the link with the discounted price to the course and good luck with your art!

Figure Drawing Foundations - Proportions

Figure Drawing Foundations - Proportions by Clayton Barton

Hello fellow comic art guys and gals. I have a pretty cool offer for you if you find yourself wanting to get better at drawing comic book hero proportions. We have all struggled in that department a time or two and it never hurts to work on that subject as much as possible. So here is just the thing to get those mental gears working on that topic.

Figure Drawing Foundations - Proportions by Clayton Barton. Clayton has done a stand up job at breaking down the barriers when it comes to understanding proportions. He goes into great detail on this subject and sheds light on this tricky topic. He also gives you a nice variety of tiers to choose from. Since one size doesn't fit all, you can choose from a few packages to suit your level of interest for this topic.

In the various packages you get video walkthroughs, PDF's, access to a virtual classroom, and lots of finely crafted lessons. I have been drawing a long time and I must admit that I am finding some great tips and tricks in here that I needed to learn. He has done an excellent job at covering all the bases to understanding body proportions and character designs. He breaks it down in an easy to follow manner which is so valuable when doing these types of studies.

So if you need that level up on your character work this is the course content to check out. And please share the work. Clayton is an amazing teacher and to keep him creating great content sharing the work is essential!

You can get his content here and good luck with your art!
