Anyways yeah if ever you want me to draw a bird photo just ask because it is a goal of mine to be unlike the countless people who just draw people, and make sure I always draw birds too, and it’s hard because there’s a lot less resources and tricks for bird drawing on account of most humans having the common interest of drawing other humans whereas to draw birds is a skill you can go a very long time without. Anyways, please send me birds to draw, I’m not letting myself be eaten up by an entirely mammalian status quo. I don’t really know where I’ve gone I’m kinda derailing.
