As an engineer, I can tell you ours is even worse

Or doctors. Or almost any other profession. If anything, artists usually have better handwriting because they actually care that their handwriting is pretty.

The real best handwriting is a mechanical keyboard lol. I always tell my professors "please dont make me write this, I will type it all in person if necessary"

You know what's fun? When you go to university and only take hand-written notes from time to time and it's usually just scribbles in the margins of a text, but then you take your final exams after literal years of barely writing by hand and it's four hours long and you have to write everything by hand. I'm sure glad that's all over now qwq

I think the special thing is that this artist is terrible at handwriting

In all seriousness, there is a stark difference between writing a letter and drawing a letter. Give the artist some time to draw a word and I bet it'd look great, but that's not an efficient way to jot down notes or a list.

as an artist, the hand motions are very different... my handwriting is legible most of the time though
