Art thoughts? Tips? Advice??Whatever fits best I guess
So you think you are bad at anatomy?
Well what if I told you that what it is you're bad at isn't anatomy and it's portion?
What is portion? You ask well portion can help you draw anatomy if you understand portion and if you know those then well you don't really need to learn realism lol
Portion is how big an object is compared another one..
Example:
The middle finger is typically, usually, the roughly same length as the palm and the total length of the hand is typically, usually, roughly the same length as the face not head but face
The pinky fingers are the same length as the thumb and the total length of your hand is roughly the same length as your foot and your foot is roughly the same length as your bicep? Upper arm :D
So ultimately just learn portion it will help you a lot!
What can portion also help with?
Perspective!
What? You may be thinking so let me explain!
Perspective is how far or close the subject is to the viewer in the art work in the form of a painting, illustration, or photograph
Learning portion can also help you with perspective in some ways specifically to keep things in roughly the same size and in the same plane
Learning perspective can also help you with your art game regarding of what it is you're drawing
As well as you guessed it say it with me: Portion!
Which in the case you aren't drawing just a human but a landscape too
Let's say a tree and some mountains
So this case you would use a combination of portion, scaling, and perspective
In this case scaling is how big an object is compared to real life and portion is how much space an object should take up compared to another and perspective is how far away the object is
You would eye subject bigger compared to the others
For instance
If it's a human you would make the mountains and trees appear farther which would make them smaller
But if it's a tree or mountain you would make those bigger and the human as something interacting with them so the don't look like they don't belong in the small image
Would learning anatomy help you draw?
Yes but as well as perspective portion and a little bit of scaling
Instead of learning how to draw realism learn anatomy, portion and perspective!
That will help you most in your drawing career!!
And if you don't feel like doing all of that use a reference pertaining to real life or a real person for art study instead of fan art
That should help with a lot of your drawing problems
As the people say work smart not hard
And if you need to be like me and stare at your reference for such a long time you look stupid because you forgot how to draw then do it I'm not stopping you
Also...
Start by drawing everything with a simple shape and adding more lines and shapes (and erasing!!) till you get the form or the shape of the object you are happy with then add extra details
Trust me you will thank me later :)

The "now you don't" was mildly threatening-
:(
Damn there are things I forgot let's see if you can count them all-
One is painfully obvious-
And no these eyes aren't shumai's from the me bragging about my improvement and giving info about the art piece post
They are random eyes and I find the points under shumai's eyes fun to draw that's it...
THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PRACTICE FOR SHADING and blending lol
BUT GUESS WHAT IT TOOK 1 HOUR AND FIVE MINUTES
AHHHHHHHHHHHH
Here's the piece in question
That doesn't look like it took an hour and five minutes to me 😒
Dude- I hate this freaking course-
i hate peer and everything it has to offer simply because it brought weight and health into making decisions..
that's messed up- fuck you teacher.
listen, listen..
i understand that some decisions can in fact make you gain weight im not stupid.
but you can still be skinny and healthy as fuck but still make decisions you really shouldn't be making.
I thought that was common sense, but apperently it isn't and i hate this course-
Poetry? Dunno... Its writing!!

In your presence I've always felt free

Why must i flee when you make me feel human

My world has never felt so dull
You've left and it's been so dark
My mind is disgusting and bleak
Oh to have you here with me
My mind is inhuman and unsafe
But I guess my safety never occurred to you
When people say love is the best thing to encounter
I wasn't expecting the pain and suffering to come with
With all that pain and suffering is my inhuman mind thinking
"I have a right to be human"
Yes I do this when I'm bored and this is how I actually feel
What they're talking about? That's up to your own impersonation? Understanding?

So I tripped and this happened-
What do I do? 😔
Emmauri and Angel matching watercolor paintings

The demon- Emmauri
I don't know man
If you ever get the urge or thought to kill yourself don't
Why?
Well someone has to remind your enemies you are alive to piss them off
Nothing is going to piss off the person you hate/hates you mutually more than you being alive
And I bet that person wants you dead so...
Live to spite them out live them
I am Marwa, a mother from Gaza with three children. I feel very hopeless. My youngest daughter has started having seizures from extreme fear. I need to do an EEG and tests. My daughter’s glasses broke and I cannot buy them enough food. My heart can no longer bear this pain alone. I hope you sympathize with me and help me.
As someone who lives in poverty, I'm able to feel the pain of not being able to have the means to be able to get enough for family and make sure they are happy and healthy. But that also means, I can't help with donating.
I'm not saying that because I want to say it, no. I don't think that people should know I don't have enough money to take care of myself, that's not anyone's business but my own.
However, if I had the money, the means, I'd help you. But I can't and I'm truly sorry.
No one should go through what's happening in Gaza, no one should be in any kind of pain, emotional or physical and it breaks my heart that it's happening and I can't do anything about it. The only thing I can do, is get your story out and hope and pray the right people find it.
Genuinely sorry, Ma'am..
