weirdest part about being an artist (and, to an extent, a writer too) is feeling like. shameful that you aren't creating massive pieces of art. how dare i not line and color and shade every drawing. how dare i only draw two poses. how dare i only write 1k words. how dare i not write an entire book. how dare i
(looking at the near 1k pieces of art in my folder and the thousands of words in my notes) you know i just don't think i do enough actually
lunathekahuna asked:
Does José ever hear about Bruno being in the walls or the 'We don't talk about bruno stuff?
lethal-amigos answered:
Yes, Jose knew that Bruno was hiding in the walls, because Bruno himself would tell him about it. Jose will find this act strange lol, but he will say that it is very convenient not to communicate with the relatives, but at the same time at least always know how they were. All these years, Jose lived away from his family and did not even know if they were alive.
The way that you react to this clip is a litmus test for if you’ve ever been autistic in public school or not
Okay, for people who may not get it:
What is being shown here is the exact type of bullying that lots of autistic people (and, in general, people who miss social cues) are subjected to in school. ‘Popular girls’ have a tendency to attempt to befriend their autistic peers for the sake of being their circus freak.
Chelsea in this clip is constantly invading Ruby’s personal space, grabbing at her, and is never not talking down to her. She doesn’t rebuke Ruby’s self-deprecating beliefs (instead opting for a “yeah, you ARE a freak BUT…” approach). Chelsea is literally manipulating Ruby into ditching school in this clip, and we KNOW, based off of other trailers, that she has bad intentions.
Chelsea is a bully pretending to be a friend, and Ruby can’t read her well enough to grasp that Chelsea is treating her like a weird little pet more than a peer. And autistic people who grew up facing this exact type of bullying can see it from a mile away.
Draw Everything June day 2. As per my predictions, June is nearly over, and I’ve completed two of the thirty poses.
I read Sansûkh recently (and am involved in an exciting related project, hopefully soon to be revealed!) so have this portrait of an unnamed dwarrowdam. I keep thinking I’d like to work in a more interesting, “artistic” style, but unless I’m doing the fake-print thing, I always get sucked into this detail work. “Textured leather!” I think to myself. “Shiny axe blades! Ooo!”
Below, the rough sketch.
