Nothing will shatter an artist's confidence in their basic knowledge of anatomy more than attempting to shave the back of their knees.

One of THE most excruciating spots to nick with the razor, too

That seems to be entering the realm of models and body builders. How it relates to an artist seems like you're being awfully hard on yourself ;)

I hear back of your knee but I will say back of your chin line also is demonic

Okay but one time I went to a figure drawing session with a contortionist model. The better you are with anatomy, the more you screw up the figure 💀

Just Liefield it and make sure to always have your knees at all times behind some continently positioned rocks or mist

You made me realize that the back of my knees are a bit hairy. If you asked me I would have said they weren't. Wild.

Or the babies embedded in the front of their knees after a shaving effort tbh

There is an eldritch geometry to knee backs. Curves that may lead one to pure madness

Knees are probably the most fucked up articulation in the body.

Also: Why are the backs of my knees the hairiest parts of my body? Why does it sprout back faster there than anywhere else? Like, I can be done shaving then five minutes later, boom, it's like a forest again.

Every time i shave the back side of my knees, I end up making a blood sacrifice to the shower drain

Ay girl, are you the back of a knee, because your curves may lead me to pure madness

And here I was thinking you were talking about the mysterious pocket dimension behind the knee. The one filled with hair that you'll sometimes dip into while shaving the back of the knee. A razor covered in hair and one very bwildered look trying to figure out where all the extra hair came from.

"One sailor was swallowed up by the back of a knee, which was an acute angle, but behaved as if it were obtuse"

Sooo, I’m pretty sure the back of the knee is locally a saddle surface, meaning that it literally has a non-Euclidean geometry. This has more to do with Lovecraft being kind of an overwrought ninny on certain subjects (ahem) as opposed to cosmic horror though

Spoken by someone who has obviously never shaved the front of an artist's knees. A dilettante of the lowest order!

I didn't realize just how hypermobile I was until I told people my method for shaving there. Apparently not everyone can lift their knees to practically their ears in the bathtub. My joint doctor CRINGED when I told her that, lol.

I got yelled at by an art teacher for drawing my legs "wrong" when my knees bend backwards and my feet are flat as fuck.

Oh my god this gets me on the regular, because I can bend my shoulders in apparently unnatural ways, which means I draw arms at angles that shouldn't be normal, lol.

Since there is nothing needing to be shaved there, on human males or females.

Draw everyone with 2 knee braces and eventually it'll catch on as a real-world style, thus potentially solving both problems at once.
