The First Intifada Palestine 1987 1987 الانتفاضة الفلسطينية الأولى

Just because an artist likes Harry Potter doesn't mean they support JK Rowling??? Its not their fault you can't separate the art from the artist.

because it's still giving the piece of media a platform. even if you pirate it. even if you disagree with it. I genuinely don't see any good, positive reason that can come from continuing to indulge and participate in the fandom publicly. Like, fine, whatever, if you're gonna read it in the privacy of your own home with nuance and critical thinking, I can't stop you. But posting about it online and engaging with it isn't helpful. It's just giving it more attention. Literally just read another book. I understand nostalgia and childhood hyperfixations and whatnot. But I have such little sympathy for the people that cling so so desperately to the problematic wizard books. There are other things out there! Just find something else!!!

You know what movie I really loved as a kid?? The Don Bluth Thumbelina movie. I rented it from blockbuster week after week after week. I love clowns, and I love frogs, so the fact that there's a frog character dressed as a clown would be totally up my alley, right? Well!!! He's a pretty racist caricature actually!! And the thing is, it's actually really really easy for me, even with my love of clowns and frogs, to actively avoid speaking positively about this character. There will be other frog clowns that aren't racist. I got over it. It's not that hard.

Artwork by Addy Rivera Sonda

addy_rivera there are no words for so much injustice. the people of Palestine are not only freeing themselves, but freeing us too, teaching us what it means to love life, to love the land, to love and fight for each other.

This drawing is inspired by @lama_jamous9 by her powerful liberation work sharing her truth and that of other children who raise their voices to demand safety and a life free of apartheid and colonial violence.

no hay palabras para tanta injusticia. las personas de Palestina no solo luchan y se liberan a sí mismas, también nos acercan al resto del mundo, nos enseñan lo que significa amar la vida, amar la tierra, amarse y cuidarse les unes a les otres.

Artist ID: we see three kids talking to each other, listening the kid on the left is wearing a pink-red sweater with stars, black pants and they are hugging a teddy bear, the kid in the middle is wearing a pink-red hoodie with lace and a butterfly in the middle, they are holding a microphone close to the third kid on the right, this kid is wearing a green hoodie with green pants, she is holding a doll in her right hand and talking. They love each other, they support each other, they are sitting on a carpet with flowers, lines and triangles, olive branches are around them. There green, white and red stars around them.

Can't afford art school?

After seeing post like this 👇

And this gem 👇

As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.

Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.

📺Here is my list:

Proko (Free)

Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard)

Aaron Rutten (free)

BoroCG (free)

Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)

Jesus Conde (free)

Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)

Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price)

SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)

Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)

The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney)

Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)

Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.

📚Here is my list:

The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.

"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.

"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.

"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.

"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.

"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.

"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.

"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.

"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.

Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.

As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are more expensive.

For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.

💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.

Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates)

Procreate ( pay once for $9.99)

Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, ect Free)

PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)

Krita (Free)

mypaint (free)

FireAlpaca (free)

Libresprite (free, for pixel art)

Those are the ones I can recall.

So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.

I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.

Hope this was helpful and have a great day.

I regret to inform you that Discord's new Terms of Service includes an arbitration clause. You can find it here https://discord.com/terms/#16. This clause includes an opt-out, which I have transcribed here:

Read about Discord's Terms of Service

You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by emailing an opt-out notice to arbitration-opt-out@discord.com within 30 days of April 15, 2024 or when you first register your Discord account, whichever is later; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Discord also will not be bound by them.

These clauses are underhanded ways that corporations seek to deprive you of your right to participate in class-action lawsuits and your right to a jury trial. (This does only apply to us users ,other people still spread the word though )
