Heyo! Have you ever wanted to draw or paint? Have you ever looked at a piece of art and wished you could do something like that? Have you ever told yourself that you can't draw a stick figure? Have you ever felt like you never have time to learn how to draw? Have you ever wanted to get back into drawing after having stopped years or decades ago? Well, I want to tell all of you that you can draw or paint. You can learn how to do it, and you do have enough time, even if you only have fifteen minutes a day to dedicate to it. Impossible, you say? I don't think it is. I'm working full time. I'll be doing stuff with my friends and family. I'll be doing @ytartschool's Learn to Draw in 30 Days challenge (x.com/ytartschool/st…) starting November 1st. And I'm calling all of y'all out to join me. Moreover, I'll be streaming it here and elsewhere so you can follow along. Don't worry if you miss a stream, or aren't in the same time zone as me. I'll be linking to where the VODs will be in the replies. So who's with me? Let's make this November #NoExcusesNovemeber! #drawing #learntodraw #art #youtubeartschool

@Edrin76800730 @IronlilyS Yes. :P

@IronlilyS Is Angie so high, or your knight so small?

When using Longsword as unit of measurement between D&D and realism...

@ani_obsessive I may have just spammed this into every art discord I'm in. 😅

This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous. Our new issue explores the tricks behind it, and how one artist has revived the look for the digital age: ─➤animationobsessive.substack.com/p/dangerous-li…

@LostLoreScholar That is a great poem. Speaking of writing poetry, is there a course or something about poetic structures and forms? I looked, but most of what I found was on modern poetry.

Out of England’s sacred soil I came forth, And tarried long in the hills of my youth, I trapsed the fairy circles in the wood, And stood before old Barrow’s buried blood. When evil found me in the fields of green, And childhood was robbed by a thief unseen, I despaired beneath cruel and pale moonlight, The prince of the air gripped my heart in fright. Long years I tarried not in summer days, But fought and bled in dark and shadowed ways, In bleak night’s sweet pleasures did I find solace, Supping wearily from poison chalice. For black and rotten was my old oak shield, with broken sword I thought to kneel and yield, To end my battle when I had yet begun, Alone thought I, around me I saw none. Yet beyond the fell walls of bounded night, The sun still burns gold in glorious might, Jesus Christ sent forth his angels in force, Pierced hand lifted me with no remorse. This son of England stood tall, proud again, Though I should stumble, fall, feel once more pain, My new shield is faith, not old oak wood, My strength is Christ and hope in all things good. Sometimes I like to write poetry. This one just sort of happened this morning.

@Imravnos @Coralia_author @RamblingsNerd No, it's called education standards have been pulled down to the lowest common denominator. That's not just a right or left thing, that's a institutional problem. Basically, our public education system is a Prussian import and we keep trying to make it do things it can't

@Coralia_author @RamblingsNerd It’s called the Right has destroyed Education standards by strawmaning silly things or finding 1 super brain rotted teacher & pretending ALL teachers are this. So since the late 80’s kids are being poorly educated b/c Stupid people are sheeple. Education cuts = weaponized cut

@Coralia_author @RamblingsNerd American here, and to be honest, I'm just as tired of it as y'all are. It's not even most Americans, just the idiots on both sides with bullhorns.

@emmiemaccrae It appears Holo is not the only wise wolf around these parts. (And thanks, now I want to rewatch Spice and Wolf while in the middle of catching up on SpyxFamily)

I don't really have an inspiration for my current PNG but I'll show you something that partly inspires my future design:

This whole short is amazingly well done.

What is about evil empires having the best looking kit?

A scribblebeast. That’s all for today. Not feeling well

@elvenmaidinn Great interview. From the sounds of it, Hollow Mire doesn't sound like it'd normally be my cup of tea, but this has piqued my interest.

@PaddyohCakes Thanks!

@DabblingWarlock Great form work there on the left and your dog is absolutely adorable!

Been drawing everyday for 33 days now. Today… well, the pooch is how my brain feels at the moment. #drawing #traditionalart #kaweco

@OmahaRenegade That's great to hear.

@DabblingWarlock Everyone is good. 👍🏻 Thanks for asking.

Been behind on the Substack posts. Daughter decided it was a good idea to fall asleep with a candle still burning in her closet… …figuring out an insurance claim for fire and smoke damage has been a ride… We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled program soon!

@rowdyruff_rae @pureMetatron Free speech means that you can call me an idiot and wish I'd drop off the face of the earth. It does not mean that you can say that someone needs to kill me. That's the bit that people on the left don't seem to get.

@pureMetatron Nice way to dodge the issue. Calling him hateful and toxic for pointing out the hypocrisy of the post. You either support free speech or you don't. And if you don't, then get the f*ck out. This isn't the country for you.

Hateful and toxic left wingers like this Evan guy are the reason I will never be a left winger ever in my entire existence on this planet. Decent left wingers like my cousin prevent me from going full far right.

@FrankMooreNH @AlysssaHazel 1. Publishers are rather persnickety about that whole copyright thing. 2. I could draw whatever I want, so why look when you can make?

@DabblingWarlock @AlysssaHazel The correct answer here is “who cares?” Find a picture of the turtle going through a book. And then it’s game on!

I need someone to make a "Franklin Discovers Tax Evasion" cover.

Drew @ExoDust7755’s Tali Ekhart. Considering it’s the first time I’ve drawn a face in I don’t know how long, I think I did well. #drawing #dndart #traditionalart #blackwingpencil

@AmiLiwami Thank the Lord that she's safe. I'll be praying for you both.

She has been found and we, and I mean WE, are giving her as much support as we can🩵 pray for her peace in her heart, and know in the depths of despair, greater joy can be found🥹

@_Not_a_cryptid_ Nice.

I hereby submit this as the best use for wallpaper engine. And yes I stayed up way to late making it completely functional. It was worth it.
