As promised, it’s finally here! Thank you to all of my patrons for not only the support that made this possible, but for giving me the confidence to work on a big project like this.
Rather than providing any drawing instruction, what this writeup aims to do is help you learn to unpack the decisions being made in a given composition, and articulate what elements in a piece are responsible for its impact. Being able to isolate these qualities in your own art and art that inspires you opens up avenues for improvement regardless of medium, style, or technical skill.
This is the first of hopefully many PWYW art ‘tutorials’ from me.
Rest in Peace to Renee Good. ICE shooting an innocent 37 year old mother attempting to protect her neighbors is not an accident or an act of self defense, it is an act of terror designed to dissuade other people from stepping in, documenting ICE violence and reminding immigrants of their rights. Her son is now an orphan and the president of the United States is calling her a ‘professional agitator’ on social media.
The head of ICE is calling her a violent terrorist and claimed her attempt to back her car away was actually an effort to murder the ICE officers present.
There’s a reason that the Right have all rallied so quickly behind this narrative: it’s happened before, with ICE’s approval.
if you’re afraid of roundabouts you shouldn’t be.. they’re beautiful pieces of roadway engineering that prevent much more anguish than they cause. loosen up and enjoy the experience of using a Roundabout next time you see one. they’re quite intuitive and much faster than a light
