➤ 🌵 Bienvenidos a la tienda online de mochilas colombianas 🌵 Te contamos la historia, tradición y cultura que hay detrás de estas mochilas w

Tienda de artesanias Wayúu, Artesanias Colombianas, Bolsos Wayúu, Mochilas Wayúu, Venta de Mochilas Wayúu, Pulseras Wayúu, Tobilleras Wayúu,
This is my tribe. Many of us in our home countries live off selling handmade goods, especially the mochilas. Weaving is an important Wayuú tradition. Every pattern and assortment of colors tells a unique story, and it's important to our cultural identity. And right now with the crises in Venezuela and Colombia, a lot of us are struggling financially. Please always purchase directly from indigenous communities!
with the amount of active followers i have there should be no reason i hardly get any traction on my calls for help other then people straight up ignoring them. let’s try again. after being homeless for 9 months after leaving an abusive relationship and a very turbulent traumatic year, i have finally secured housing. the funds that i have saved up are going towards first months rent as well as transportation for when i start working (i have already been applying to jobs and even have an interview the day after i land). i had to dip into funds for winter clothes because i am moving to a state with extremely cold weather temperatures that i have never had to worry about preparing for. i made a previous post about raising funds for for my plane ticket but totally forgot about checked baggage. every reblog seriously counts, and so does every $1. my donation links are below. thank you.

Not to sound like an old fart here but my philosophy about video games is like. A kid living out in the middle of bumfuck nowhere with no internet access for miles should be able to purchase a game from walmart, take that game home, put it in their console, and play the whole game with all of its features and the only thing lack of internet affects is the inability to play online with others. Nothing else. They shouldn't be missing entire chunks of the game becuase they can't download a patch. The game shouldn't be borderline empty or unplayable without a patch.

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
okay so i just got my dream job??? a week after applying to it?? and now i’m thinking….maybe this is the good luck post
…..not even six hours later i got an offer of a well paying full time long-term job with free room and board in queens in nyc, allowing me independence and a way to escape an abusive situation and an unhealthy environment
likes charge reblogs cast, folks, this is the good luck post
i need all the help i can get for finals
Hey so
the last time I reblogged this post right before I got a great job, in a permanent work-from-home position, with benefits, retirement, and a salary literally 3x what I was making before, doing something I really like.
So you know.
This might be the real one, y’all.
I just scored an interview for what would be a HUGE promotion at work! Not taking any risks!
For anyone who needs it
i found a dollar on the ground
Imperialism kills.
They stole the land and killed the children.
I want to put this in perspective for anyone else in Canada: this has happened within less than a century. These are 1665 human beings who would have otherwise been elders today. Thousands of people who should have been able to grow up, live their lives, build families, maintain and pass on traditions, and more, gone because of British colonialism.
The Canadian government and Catholic church intentionally destroyed an entire generation of Indigenous people. Please, support your Indigenous friends, and please stop pretending that Canada is better than America when it comes to institutional racism.
anyway im stressed about my future and needed practice drawing hands, so.
a LOT of people are reblogging this as of late. y’all ok?
I think I can speak for all millenials when I say this:
No.
I think I can speak for all Gen Zenials when I say this:
No.
Just saw a very serious tumblr post refer to adults age 25+ as “older adults.” I am begging you kids to go outside and interact with diverse groups of people. Please. It’s for your own good.
Black women are so big brained are you serious
Holy Shit
I know it's visible on the screen but if you cannot see her name that is Adanna Madueke. She's a natural hair influencer.
Even if you don't have curly, coily, or kinky hair I highly recommend watching these influencers. Not only are a lot of them innovative, like this woman, but you will learn a lot more about how Black hair works. There is not nearly enough education about how our hair works, and most people without this kind of hair are clueless.
I suggest adanna, Naptural85, Kimberly Cherell , NaturalReign , StarPuppy, Chev B, MsNaturallyMary, Loveth Speaks , EvaniwithaV ,Eugenia Kelcy, TheChicNatural, WillonaWhim , GreenBeauty, Curly Chemistry, VivHairTherapy and Bianca Renee Today. These are people of different genders, hair types, and methods. Protective styles or wash and go people. People doing g it cor fun and actual chemists. Because there is no one size fits all. There are also thousands more, but these were the first people I thought of. Take this as your chance to learn something new
Woah!!!!!

How to draw Afro textured 4c hair - an explanation/Tutorial
For those of you that don’t know what 4c hair is, 4c hair is a hair texture type that contains coils to small and tight that the hair appears to be more puffy rather than curly ( like to photo below ) this is in NO WAY to be confused with curly hair. there is a drastic difference.
As a black artist that primarily draws characters with 4c hair, I’ve been asked many times to do a tutorial on 4c hair so here we go~
before we get into 4c hair, lets take a moment to fully understand it by talking about hair texture in a general sense first
let’s take a look at this example of straight hair vs curly hair ( 1 type straight hair vs 3 type curly hair )
If you take a moment to compare the two you’ll notice straight hair is flat, it has no texture. Straight hair perfectly hangs down similar to liquid-like silk. It’s lack of curl pattern is the reason as to why it hangs perfectly flat.
curly hair on the other hand doesn’t lie down flat and silky like straight hair, It’s more thick. Curly hair in it’s raw and unstyled state has a trapezoid like shape this is because the sides of the hair spread more outward.
So why is this? Why is straight hair flat and curly hair thick?
the answer to that question is a thing called piling up. When it comes to hair texture, the shape of the hair strands aren’t the only thing that matters, its how the strands coexist with each other, Curly hair strands coexist by piling up on top each other.
moisture also effects hair texture too, different hair types absorbs moisture differently, thus the thickness of each hair type is different.
…..soooo, how does this all relate to how to draw 4c hair??
Well let’s take a look at the drawing below. Notice how the arrows go outward more as the hair texture gets curlier. As we’ve already discussed, this is because hair piles up, The curlier the hair texture, the more it piles up on each other, the bigger it gets, the more outward the arrows go.
Out of any hair texture, 4C hair has the most curls. Because of this, the hair piles up on each other so much that it doesn’t lie down flat like straight hair, nor does it make a trapezoid like shape like curly hair, it instead becomes more cloud like.❤️
This is what you need to take into account when it comes to drawing 4C hair.
Think of it as piling up a bunch of cotton balls on each other. The most cotton on top of top to lead to a bigger patch of cotton. this is 4c hair.
How to not draw 4c hair:
Garnet fanart. Let’s talk about Garnet Fanart. I notice a trend that when artists draw Garnet from Steven universe, her hair texture is usually changed to 3 type curly like texture. This subtle form of White washing has confused me because this is inaccurate.
Garnet’s hair is in the shape of a cube. Though 3 type hair piles up on each other, it isn’t curly nor thick enough for their hair to stay in the shape of a cube. Curly hair lies down more than 4c hair. So garnet’s hair being in the shape of a cube is a dead giveaway that it is 4C. Why do you think hairstyles like flat tops are usually seen on black men with 4c hair? It’s because, the 4c hair texture is thick and strong enough to stay in whatever shape you put it in.
please, if you’re drawing a character with 4c hair, avoid drawing it like curly 3 type hair, this is very anti-black and texturist.
So, how do you draw 4c hair?
honestly, its the most easy thing in the world
i wanna clarify that blobby looking 4c drawings ( like the one on the top left ) can work depending on how cartoony your art style is.
Another thing that I want to greatly clarify when it comes to drawing 4C hair is, YOU. DONT. NEED. TO. DRAW. EVERY. HAIR. STRAND!…..like, seriously. I’ve gotten many messages about how 4C hair is hard to draw, and it’s always left me confused; but then I find out that the same people that have trouble drawing 4C hair, attempt to draw every single strand of hair. This is unnecessarily time consuming because it’s merely impossible to get every single detail down, especially when you have a simple cartoon style. 4C hair does not require much effort, all you’re doing is drawing lumps. It’s that simple, nothing more nor nothing less.
The reason why I greatly advise all of you to avoid drawing every single hair strand is because in real life, when you look at a 4C textured Afro, your eyes don’t pick up on each individual hair strand like straight or curly hair. 4C hair, appears to be more undefined and cloud like, so attempting to draw each and every individual strand is unnecessary and will most likely end up looking inaccurate.
Anyways! that’s it for now! there will be a part 2 to this tutorial that will come out next week! i hope you guys have learned from this and apply it to your black character in your art!~
If you’re not a black person with 4c hair, stop interacting with this post. You can re-blog but I do not want to read your useless explanation on why you personally don’t see it as problematic to turn a black character with 4C hair to curly hair.
I also would prefer not to hear you cry about how I’m being “harsh” for calling out this form of white washing. I wasn’t here to sugarcoat anything for you 👍🏾
