What do I do? 😔
Hello. This is Mahmoud Khalaf from Gaza, currently studying in Ireland. I hope you’re doing well. I am campaigning to evacuate my family from Gaza and reunite with them in Ireland where we can build a new life in a safe place. My campaign has been vetted by El Shab Hussein and Nabulsi #151 on the Vetted Gaza Fundraisers List, as explained in the post. We are at 68% of our final fundraising goal. Could we ask you please to reblog our post titled “Traumatized in Ireland While my Family is Facing Death and Starvation in Gaza" Link https://www.tumblr.com/supportgaza/767056441041420288/we-are-at-68-of-our-final-fundraising-goal?source=share
Ah, life in America sucks as usual but not as much as life in Gaza.
Wish you the best in regards of relocating your family to Ireland, however, I won't be able to fundraise your campaign. However, I may use my platform to help you get the recognition you need so you can get help.
I'm terribly sorry I can't do much to help you.
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..
For the non-americans out there that don't know already, the old men-i mean the government is banning certain books, especially in schools.
Am I the only one who forgets to eat almost all day then complains about it later at 12:23 in the morning?

I have decided to ask my english teacher if she had any works by Edgar Allan Poe (to bsd fans I mean the real life author) she said she doesn't in the classroom but she might have something at her house and that she has been giving a lot away (she's retiring soon so that explains that)
Do I know what that means?
Absolutely not and I'm not going to pretend like I do
All I know is I get to cry because she doesn't have any works and I get to search the internet for his works ;;

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 :)
I ramble, post art, and other things I am not a human just a raccoon in a coat and yes I'm cold thanks for asking feel free to ask questions regarding art or writing
