in honor of the new spider-verse movie i did a quick study of one of my favorite shots from the original !! <33

#my art #spiderverse #spider-verse #into the spider-verse #miles morales #i know everyone in the world has studied this shot! now i have too!#id like to spend more time on it next time i stopped after about 30 minutes so i mostly just carved shapes in #i think id also like to ! get some more different painting brushes bc i couldnt get a lot of the shapes i wanted #but it was fun trying to study this without color picking or directly drawing over the composition and everything #so i was just eyeballing it . ive been trying to figure out color relativity by Feeling it out so i wanted to do it this way #comparing them has been interesting ! i can see where i compressed some spaces of the composition #anyway it HAS been almost a year since i posted art here HAHA but well i just post for fun so it doesnt matter #if i posted ocs id have more art here but i prefer not to so you just get stuff whenever i make fanart #i would LOVE to do studies from the new movie but i dont have access to high quality screenshots yet #i actually did this as an exercise with one of my friends from college hehe we exchanged spiderverse screenshots to study #i also added some chromatic abberation you know just for fun . i made a version with it over the full piece but i thought well #i preferred it like this #anyway ! bye !

people really do not know what they're talking about when it comes to Elizabeth Woodville's social status, huh?

#yes Elizabeth was without a doubt considered too low-born to be queen #no she was not a commoner and nobody actually called her that during her life (so I'm not sure why people are claiming that they did?)#Elizabeth's social status was not a problem in itself; it was a problem in the context of queenship and marrying into royalty #Context is important in this and for literally everything else when it comes to analyzing history. Any discussion is worthless without it.#obviously pop culture-esque articles claiming that she was 'a commoner who captured the king's heart' are wrong; she wasn't #But emphasizing that ACTUALLY she was part of the gentry with a well-born mother and just leaving it at that as some sort of “GOTCHA!”#is equally if not more irresponsible and entirely irrelevant to discussions of the actual time period we're studying.#Elizabeth *was* considered unworthy and unacceptable as queen precisely because of her lower social status #her father and brother had literally been derided as social-climbers by Salisbury Warwick and Edward himself just a few years earlier #the Woodvilles' marriage prospects clearly reflected their status (and 'place') in society: EW herself had first married a knight and all #siblings married within the gentry to people of a similar status. compare that to the prestigious marriages arranged after EW became queen #Elizabeth having a lower social status was not 'created' by propaganda against her; it fueled and shaped propaganda against her #that's a huge huge difference; it's irresponsible and silly to conflate the two as I've seen a recent tumblr post cavalierly do #like I said she was considered too low-born to be queen long before any of the propaganda Warwick Clarence or Richard put out against her #and the fact that Elizabeth was targeted on the basis of her social status was in itself novel and unprecedented #no queen before her was ever targeted in such a manner; Clearly Elizabeth was considered notably 'different' in that regard #(and was quite literally framed as the enemy and destroyer of 'the old royal blood of this realm' and all its actual 'inheritors' like..)#ngl this sort of discussion always leaves a bad taste in my mouth #because it's not like England and France (et all) are at war or consider each other mortal enemies in the 21st century #both are in fact western european imperialistic nations who've been nothing but a blight to the rest of the world including my own country #yet academic historians clearly have no problem contextualizing the xenophobia that medieval foreign queens faced as products of their time #and sympathizing with them accordingly (Eleanor of Provence; Joan of Navarre; Margaret of Anjou; etc)(at least by their own historians)#Nor were foreign queens the “worst” targets of xenophobia: that was their attendants or in times of war commoners or soldiers #who actually had to bear the brunt of English aggression #queens were ultimately protected and guaranteed at least a veneer of dignity and respect because of their royal status #yet once again historians and people have no problem contextualizing and understanding their difficulties regardless of all this #so what is the problem with contextualizing the classism *Elizabeth* faced and understanding *her* difficulties?#why is the prejudice against her constantly diminished & downplayed? (Ive never even seen any historian directly refer to it as 'classism')#after all it was *Elizabeth* who was more vulnerable than any queen before her due to her lack of powerful foreign or national support #and Elizabeth who faced a form of propaganda distinctly unprecedented for queens. it SHOULD be emphasized more.

Just when I think the day's going well, I crash a golf cart

#summer camp tag #ace is a mess #i do not have a drivers license and i havent even been behind the wheel in like 4 years since i stopped lessons cus of the pandemic #the day was going fine i got loads done didnt feel like i was irritating my director too bad #doing some paperwork for her and she says when im done well take the golf cart out while its not currently raining #im like ooh fun never been in a golf cart before i see the higher up staff in them im not gonna say no to chilling in a golf cart #i did not realise that meant i would be driving esp when she asked if id been in one before and i said no #she then asked if i could drive and i said not really thought that would be it #cus i was supposed to be studying for my theory before working towards my practical #but no she insists im driving and first off i gotta reverse outta this bay now at least i didnt have to think about gears #but i hate tryna figure out how to turn whilst in reverse in mess with my brain im not great with shape visualisation #we do all our stops its fine for the most part a lil too fast going down some of the hills #and some tight turns but my turns were always like that cus im too busy focusing on the most immediate thing #we get back i park fine and then shes like oh actually there are some more stops we can make so i reverse and turn back out #do our two stops with only minimal confusion about direction then as i go to park into the bay we came from #shes like oh actually park in the bay closest to the health centre and what i should have done was reversed and adjusted my angle #instead i drove directly into the supporting beam separating the two bays 🙃😭#i immediately turn the cart off and expect her to switch with me instead shes like laughing it off oh it was just a little bump it was fine #im like it was not that was a loud ass bang i feel so bad and then she lifts up the light cover i broke off saying its just a scratch #and i feel worse so pf course thats when the camp director comes out to check on the noise and i dont think ive ever worn a guiltier look #but theyre both laughing it off oh just having a little driving lesson :) and i am mortified #she gets back in the cart and shes still insisting that its fine and i should still park after that which i do with great trepidation #but there are no more problems and the lights still work but the cover does need fixing and i just oh my god #ive never crashed before never clipped or scratched a car so of course id crash the golf cart trying to park of all things 😭

for like 3 weeks i was wondering why i was sleeping so much and felt listless. and just now I managed to email 3 people and responded to a month old message in the span of an hour because I got back to TAKING MY FUCKIN MEDS..........

#MOTHER FFFFUCKER #to be fair. my doc said I could stop taking them while im on break since i wouldnt need to be constantly pumped on stimulants #im not sure if it was a side effect but i managed to take like 3 different naps in one day and STILL managed to sleep thru the whole night #at least 2 days into my break. the weird thing is i didnt feel more or less rested afterwards. but mentally i think im in a good place rn #to really put the level of awakeness im at rn i feel weirdly confident i could start one piece. also bc of that sick new opening it BANGS #the song is really good and im in love with the animation style. did some digging and it seems one of the lead animators is masato mori #but i could be wrong. it seems he also did some work on mp100 which could explain a lot lol.. he uses smear frames really well to convey #consistent movement and fluidity!!! someone else might have done color design but it works really really well esp with odas style!!#just love the overall vibe and aesthetic and id really love to study it and incorporate a bit of it into my art.. especially the thick #outlines which i think helps to separate characters and objects on screen. though i have to say the style is definitely more suited to #animation bc of the simpleness and smears. maybe that will help me explore shapes and perspective when i draw... i wanna get better #at drawing poses and angles but i have a hard time wrapping my head around space and using perspective guide lines NGHHHH #i wonder if it has to do with my dogshit ability to judge distance. not depth perception but like. judge how far smth is in metres etc #im also wearing an N95 for the first couple weeks back bc of the wave. absolutely NO BODY is wearing a mask its so fucking over #where im sitting ive heard 5 different people coughing probably not into their elbows!!! and im just. head in my fucking hands #there was a kid sitting a couple seats away in class coughing as he pleases and i wanted to grab him in a chokehold so badly. PLEASEE #ive been annoying my family by asking them to mask up and reminding them to bring masks when they go out and showing them news articles #but at least its working bc we ordered some KN95s and my mom is at least taking me seriously so. please dont be afraid to speak up abt your #health. take care of yourself and others however u can!! wear that mask indoors at your maskless friends house!!! stay home when u can!!#im wearing a surgical mask at home too bc my parents have '''a dry throat cough''' and they are so bad at coughing into their sleeves #also im pretty sure dry throat isnt transmissible bc my brother started coughing too so.. i also tested negative but they havent tested yet #im also not a doctor but i have to keep reminding ppl whenever i can that covid and flu work differently. covid is new and too recent to #have nearly as much research done on it. it seems its also compounding so instead of building immunity it weakens the body and spreads to #to other systems which might explain brain fog and muscle weakness. i remember someone early in the pandemic got infected and it messed up #their smell/taste receptors so bad that they cant eat most foods and that stays in the front of my mind when i think abt covid. christ #yapping

should I apply to the psychology program. like for shits and giggles

#i actually did already get in once but it wasnt where i live so it was too much bc moving far away from home + new program freaked me out #so i moved back after no less than one night #but i am now medicated + have a right to get accommodations due to autism and add diagnosis + can continue to live at home #i am extremely out of shape as a student though like not used to studying at all #last time i studied intensely was a year for law school but that was over two years ago now because i keep wasting my life #and between that there was a big gap after graduating too #and its not like im used to being productive in other ways bc ive mostly just been unemployed

Saw some artists draw Rise Raph’s mask in a bow and I fell in love ♥️

#rottmnt #rise raphael #raphel #i saw the bow and i loved it i was like yes i love how raph is so angry and tough but rise raph punched toxic masculinity in the face #but then i was doodling it and its like #its lgbt history month here in the uk #and most of you know im non binary #and i have been self projecting onto rise raph a lot this past month so #i ended up doing this instead with his two outfits #experimented with colours and textures a little more #i want to branch out and maybe try drawing the other turts and maybe some humans but i am missing my sonic stuff a lot too #but yeah a fem and masc rise raph for the soul for now #i really love all the ideas and headcanons about raph having DID and stuff it is logical #but i also just like that maybe raph is like an onion with lots of layers that i can hug and self project onto mwahahaha #i think i need more practice with this more boxes body shape but i do think this is already much better than my attemp 3 weeks ago so progr #progress #its a shame i dont have time to do lots of studies and redraws i think that be the next step for me to progress #also no one asked but i think his masked it ruined at the bottom because he chewed it when he was younger #also also no one asked even more so but this month ive just been thinking alot about how i present and idk #just a lot of thoughts and reflections going on here i guess #SaveRiseOfTheTMNT

my sociology of gender class has tasked us to write an essay about our "gender ideology" (how we believe gender does work and how we believe gender should work) which is a hell of a task. probably one i shouldve started . not a couple of hours before its due

#but its a very hard task! my ideology is shaped by the fact that ive been studying gender informally since i was twelve #and also i have been a closeted trans person for around the same time. i dont know how to articulate it into /words!/#i guess im generally of the opinion that gender functions as a structure of exclusion but ive never been quite able to figure out #whether i love gender abolishment or if there need to be 1073943075304238 new genders #not to mention i need to reference five sources to back my ideas up.. they dont have to be super formal thankfully but its another Thing.

Ramble vent in the tags about. Tumblr.

#I feel like I need to get off this website but I have sort of mixed feelings about it #This place is. Fucking terrible for my mental health #Most of my anxiety spirals go back to this place in some way shape or form #My doctor said I'm exhibiting ocd symptoms and I feel like the. Let's say culture if this app is Not fucking helping with that #For years now Ive been afraid to post my own interests and opinions on my own fucking blog because I'm afraid of some imaginary backlash #That I've never actually been the target of but I've seen it so often I'm like. Terrified of it #I'm afraid even admitting that because I feel like people will think the worst of me based on my own fear #Even though I've done nothing wrong and I don't owe anyone an explanation for like. Thinking voting is good actually. Or whatever.#Or thinking the way that people here talk about history #And religion. The things that I study and teach professionally! Could maybe be more nuanced #But also like. I pretty much grew up here. I met my fiancée here. I have people here who I used to be extremely close friends with and #Now this is the only connection we have #I delete tumblr and there go the first conversations I had with my fiancée #And also I'm chasing this high of like. Being a 13 year old nerd posting about doctor who and Percy Jackson and making friends and feeling #Like part of a community for the first time and I don't think that's ever coming back #This isn't the website it was 10 years ago and I'm not a kid anymore #I'm just stressed. All the time.#I don't know man. This is fucking bad for me.#It also eats into my professional life and my attention span and. Ugh.#Yeah. Anyway.#Tmi cw

i may still be recovering from the psychic damage done to me by my high school art teacher but at least it taught me early that art teachers dont always know wtf theyre talking about

#makes navigating college level art courses a little easier and less frightening #esp now that ive had some profs telling me to do things my hs art teacher said were bad #like fanart :')#my 2d prof telling me putting some fanart in my portfolio is good bc it shows i can adapt styles: :0 #still trying to unlearn the 'hyper realism is the be all end all of good art'#my hs art teacher beat all the shapes out of me and like i still love shapes but i dont utilize them like i used to #art profs need to learn how to say 'studying fundamentals will help you become a stronger artist'#without saying 'anything stylized is bad and you should focus on something else'#and i dont even need to tell u that she hated anime but she did and nobody is surprised #led to me having an art crisis and severe burn out but like i said at least i learned all these lessons early #just thinking about this again as im trying to let that more cartoony aspect back into my work #and embracing cleaning my sketches bc line work really just makes my art Lose something (mainly line weight but other aspects as well)#i need to have 234578347 different styles or i'll die #but yeah that hyper realism thing really got to me its been the hardest thing to unlearn #i love my little toons but i cant help but still hear that 'it wont be good/finished until its hyper rendered' devil on my shoulder #making the effort to finally unlearn this stuff this year im kicking it to the curb and embracing having multiple styles #it speaks

small quick study. i dont think i captured atmospheric fog like I was hoping to but it was my first try :) and i think the figure work was useful

(I can’t for the life of me reverse search the source image)

#ive been struggling with clouds i think #maybe i'll try to block shape them ? i was dissatisfied a lot with the random splotches i did here but i didnt know what else to do #no info... but i like how i did the figure :) subtle reduced strength of the shadows in the shirt #painting practice #art stuff #i can show u guys this one i think... hope it's not copyrighted but hey s/amdoesarts did a study of it so #(at least im showing the ref ahahaha)
