I have an Intuos 4 Medium
I am trying to fight some bad habits I have developed over years of drawing with tablets
Hunching over
and more importantly mainly drawing with wrist, rarely the elbow and never the shoulder
I always have my tablet flat on the table, no stand for it , idk if people even do that for theirs
But I want to use my elbow and shoulder more to draw, I feel I will get better lines that way , but the position and size of the tablet makes it very hard to do compared to using an easel
To draw with my elbow or shoulder I cant rest my hand on the table or tablet I have to keep it lifted the whole time and it gets tiring fast
Idk if anyone has any recommendations on how they do it or if anyone has managed to relearn bad habits I would appreciate some advice

Oftentimes I have my tablet propped on the edge of my desk, the bottom against my stomach, which can give you that tilt. Part of it is just forcing yourself to build the habit of using your elbow. I feel like with the space of a tablet using the shoulder isn't that convenient anyway.

Yeah, I'm always leaned back, relaxed with the tablet resting in my left arm like a sketchbook. Pretty much exactly the same posture I have when life drawing.
I can't even imagine trying to draw with the table flat on the desk desu. Just practice the posture for a few weeks
Ps: I use the same model, it's like I'm you in the future
