If You Want To Support Autistic People You Really Do Need To Shut Up About Picky Eaters. Sorry

I need to once again ask for you all to help my friends Ahmed and Dina Alanqar and their four young children in Gaza. Unfortunately they've been struggling to contact GFM about issues transferring funds, so they needed to begin a new campaign from scratch.

Ahmed tells me the situation is becoming worse by the day now. Bombs are falling around them and the price of food keeps rising.

When they tried to return to their home they found their childrens clothes were burned and torn in rubble.

Please assist in their continued survival and ensure they have a chance to escape when they can. Donate and share! ♥️

Any Tips on how to go about foreshortening?

Haha! No but seriously, I personally wing it. But I’ll do my best to explain my process! First, let’s take the art that I ~think~ influenced this ask:

So in order to figure out the perspective, I always have to have a 1) a head to refer to. Then it’s very important to 2) mark the general area to the head that you want the hand to be. 3) shoulder! 4) make a line of action that you want the torso to follow and mold the shape around it.

There’s also the tube method! Think about arms/legs as shapes, specifically. Most of the time the reason why people struggle with foreshortening is because they try to attack the details before attacking the shape. Don’t do that! You’ll trip yourself every time. Shape first, detail second. You’ll also notice that a forearm has more mass towards the elbow, and thighs are a lot bigger than you think when the leg is bending! Which brings me into my next thing.

FIGURE STUDY!! STUDY THAT FIGURE! If you’re able to take classes, DO IT and don’t choose a basic seat! Challenge yourself! If you can’t take classes, use yourself as reference or find websites/videos specifically for academic figure study. Draw what you see and not what you know. Look up what a quick pose/gesture drawing is, and if there’s tutorials.

Getting to know the body and its muscles is a VERY powerful tool. Sorry to be a broken record, but the basics are important for a reason. So many artists say “practice,” but I don’t think enough say “observe.” Because that’s literally all that I do and I stare long enough to try and put it to paper. Observe other people! The details! Notice the absence of flat surfaces, how we think we know the body but we don’t—

Ack! Sorry, a lot of these tutorials I give always end in me spilling my passion for figure study. But yeah! Observation, placement, shapes, and uh… winging it! Really that’s all that art is. It’s sure to help with foreshortening.

I hope this helps!

Can all the tumblr homosexuals agree to stop buying chick fil a. It's so depressing that across the board lgbt people and supporters are indifferent to chick fil a and feel fine buying it. Can we at least stigmatize it here

my biggest fixation for the past year has definitely been music, sharing and discovering new music, the stories behind music, little analyses of the sounds of music (which i've been writing on my Album of the Year account that kinda has longform bloggy content too) etc. etc. but the thing about music is that it is incredibly hard to discuss on text-based social media, not only cause it's trying to transmit audio based media through a predominantly visual based medium, but also engagement farming causes discussions to focus around hot takes and controversial opinions all the time. not saying differing opinions are bad or anything, music is THE most subjective form of art imaginable, but seeing the same black & white thoughts engineered to promote arguments and division every day, that's what those sites feed on, it's the worst. i like nuance. nuance makes my brain happy, taking in different perspectives and forming your own opinion, fucking love that shit, wish so many english essays didn't take off points for you using it. do you see how much i'm writing about nuance right now? this could've been an essay but here i am writing it for free
