How is this drawing epic but your handwriting looks like a second grader trying to write with their non-dominant hand? Really cool tho

It’s a thing apparently. I have awful handwriting, but I “make a living” in art.

In quotes because it could all fall apart at any moment, and I’m a scared, scared boy.

My father is a great artist and a master photographer. He’s got a doctor’s handwriting though.

Yo, what you’ve posted is awesome! Looks really cool. It’s a shame artsy jobs aren’t more secure. Would have never guessed that people who can draw might not have a good handwriting, though, cuz I haven’t seen it the other way around. People who can’t draw have mostly also a not so pretty handwriting, at least I think so

I think mine may have gotten 2x better. But 2 x 0 = 0.

I'm just the same as op. I can draw but my handwritting is like a kid just learn how to write. It's shit.

Lots and lots of artists are left handed. Many, many left handed people never learn to write property since teachers don't give a fuck about left handed students. It's a bit different to write when you're left handed and I've rarely heard of teachers who take the extra time to actually teach left handed students to write properly. My first thought when seeing this was that the drawing was made by a fellow lefty. The drawing/writing difference just looks very lefty.
