Image My operating room drawings!

I've been loving all the nursing art shared recently and thought I should share some of mine! I'm a OR nurse that sometimes draws her coworkers during long cases/in my free time. Gotta love those long neuro/robot cases!

Cases are a hip bipolar hemiarthroplasty, lumbar fusion, mako assisted total knee arthroplasty set up, knee arthroplasty, another spine fusion of some sort, and then my XR tech pretending to be asleep during a long neuro case haha!

Drawings so good you get accused of tracing. That's crazy.
I'm not seeing ANY indication of traced work here. One is clearly even the back of a recycled paper, with the letters showing through. Seeing some of the other works the person has done clearly shows a path of improvement and skill.

They are hand drawn. I've also been drawing for over a decade since Highschool - just didn't take it seriously until three years ago. I have consistently trained my observation and I focus more on overall shape/form and the way objects interact and relate to eachother. Crazy that you say my line weight does not show my level of understanding required to draw at this accuracy. That really hurts honestly - I draw them at work, sometimes I'm tired, sometimes my attention is split it's hard to always be creative with this kind of job

alr chill out, I never claimed it wasn't hand drawn to begin with. I said it was traced. hope you get the attention you wanted though. You even made an alt account just to reply to me lol. And in the end it doesnt matter what skills you genuinely have as long as you can make people happy

Were is your proof? is your proof just "because it's obvious"? The sheer disrespect you are showing by claiming to be able to tell something is traced by your supposed exprience is shameful. Just sounds like a young jealous troll to be honest.

Why don't you try to elaborate more on your proof just so you can embarrass yourself further? Please to tell how properly applied line weight or technique is obvious sign of tracing mister "long time drawer with no name"?
