One time I was awfully tired when I reached school so I went down to the basement to take a nap. feels like a SHAMEFUL SECRET but it was a rlly good idea. So quiet and calm . Best deal. A draft I found from 2013 JLSKJ BABY ME??? I was sent down there to get something I believe. For a while I know that the school library kept many of their books down there!

a summary of my previous post: draw fat people for your own gain!!! win today by drawing them fat !! 

[tamagaytchi]

There exist this aesthetic of thin people not only in fashion or everyday life but in literally every aspect of whatever situation, including art of any type. 

I’ve noticed that in figure drawing it’s usual for the artist to draw the model too thin. My teacher told me once that the picture i drew of our model was too fat (although he didn’t use the word fat he said round or W/E because he considers fat to be a bad word i guess)  I had of course drawn our model in p much the right size with some proportion wrongs only, BUT many people in our class had not. They drew the model too thin. I’ve seen this even outside of class , it’s very much not an isolated accident. When we draw what’s in front of us we’re both working with our eyes and our brain, and our brain is working by looking through our memory for reference pictures to use. We draw not only what we see but also what we remember. It makes sense that we draw people more thin than they appear to us because media force-feeds us with these pictures of very thin and / or muscular people. Many times these pictures aren’t even realistic but probably photoshopped or w/e. Our mental image of humans when it comes to size and fat is not to be trusted.

Figure drawing is only one example. I see that it’s usual also to draw fat fictional characters more thin than they actually are . but honestly, drawing fat people or drawing chubby people can be hard !!!!!! This is why I ask of you: Please expand your artistic horizons. Please challenge yourself and learn how to draw variety in body types. Thin bodies are aesthetically pleasing because they’ve been made to be and there is no reason chubby n fat n soggy bodies CANNOT be aesthetically pleasing as well! If doing this to fight fatphobia does not interest you, then do it for your own artistic development. Do it to gain more knowledge, more resources of art and the world around you. Do it to win.

that’s reminds me about the ancient swedish classic håkan bråkans julkalender when his dad tells him that the action hero toy he wants is too violent n he should by a plushie or something cuddly instead and he’s like “why do my dad wants me to buy a potato” it has literally nothing to do with the doll thing but he just????? “I’m not gonna buy a potato dad” imao ewtf
