Even as a more experienced artist, it's important to review the basics. Remember to practice

line

shape

value

lighting

color

boobs

composition

[dizzyghoast]

this is really important to remember! art is a process and youre always learning! it can be very helpful to dedicate some time every day to some warm ups before any major drawings as well. try alternating between different subjects. for example, start with lines, then boobs, then shapes, then boobs again, then composition, then boobs, then back to lines, then round it all out with some boobs. it can really make a difference!

I don't want to talk about the 1000 days because I died a thousand times over during those days. They ripped my soul from me, took my sanity, and killed everything beautiful I saw. It's just a number the world talks about today and forgets tomorrow, even though tomorrow will be worse because it's 1001, meaning tomorrow there will be death, hunger, fear, poverty, and oppression. Nothing will change except that we keep getting worse and worse and worse. The whole world is showing sympathy today, but tomorrow they'll forget, even as our extermination and killing continue.

How is scotlands bike infrastructure?

Pretty underwhelming.

We’re caught in a vicious circle of not having a culture of cycling because there historically wasn’t any good cycling infrastructure, and people don’t use the cycling infrastructure when it’s implemented because there’s not a culture of cycling.

Caihua 彩画 "colour painting" is the traditional Chinese decorative painting used for architecture and one of the most notable and important features of historical Chinese architecture. Caihua served not only as decoration but also protection of the predominantly wooden architecture from various seasonal elements and hid the imperfections of the wood itself.

The use of different colours or paintings would be according to the particular local regional customs, as well as historical periods. The choice of colours and symbology are based on traditional Chinese philosophies like the Five Elements.

One of the most common types is Hexi Caihua 和玺彩画 “Hexi painting” or “Imperial-style decorative painting” which is the royal variation of Caihua. Historically used only on the most important buildings in Chinese palaces.

a small thing i learned from my sister dying is that i really would rather the people i love be a burden than be whatever the hell else they'd be if they weren't. yes even if it's messy and not always fair and hard completely inconvenient for everyone involved. even if it's weird. even if i'm rolling my eyes a bit inside sometimes. i just want you to bother me. please always bother me

[fairycosmos]

like "it's rotten work" "not to me not if it's you" actually sometimes it's still rotten work. even if it's you. and i'd still do it a million times over
