Yes, you are allowed to buy those handmade Inuit winter clothes if an Inuk is literally selling them to you. They would not be offering you a price point if they didnt want you to buy and wear them. And you might discover that theyre the best winter clothes youve ever worn because of COURSE they would be if theyve kept this culture warm in harsh winters for thousands of years.

Yes, you are allowed to join those Cambodians in that local holiday theyre celebrating during your visit if they literally invited you to it. They would not have invited you if they didnt want you to participate. And in the process you might learn a lot about a culture you never wouldve interacted with and you can all have a laugh together about your clumsy but genuine attempts at getting your footwork right in one of their traditional dances.

Yes, you are also allowed to ask if you can participate in something from the local culture you are visiting. Sometimes you will get "sorry, thats a closed practice" but in my experience most of the time you'll get "of course, let me show you how to do this!" And in my experience people tend to appreciate when others make an active effort in sharing their culture and wont stone you to death if youre clumsy about it while youre learning. I guarantee that the local children doing all of this for the first time too make the same mistakes you do and they can tell if youre being disrespectful or genuine.

Plant powers in spring

Fire powers in summer

Wind powers in fall

Ice powers in winter

But! Her moral alignment also changes. She's a classic hero in spring, an anti-hero in summer, a morally ambigious character in fall, and a straight-up villain in winter.

She often has to start every spring undoing the damage she'd done in the previous winter.

Her given name would be Demeter, and her alter-ego would change with the seasons, too.

Spring Cleaner

Summer Soldier

Fall Fouler

Teaching children drawing includes breaking down complex concepts and exercising them tirelessly, and they get impatient if its too much theory (which is required with perspective study) so sometimes showing a very explicit way (such as I showed on that text post) and then directing them to the basis is a smoother transition and keeps up the motivation. 

That being said, if you are studying art seriously please do not skip any steps on groundwork and take time to learn the basics, observe nature and references and really grind for that xp

Draw the buddy

Use a transformation tool (usually ctrl + click on the small squares)

fill it up like a balloon not forgetting some things cover others

Keep going! That way you keep your proportions right, etc

And don’t forget references for the angles (which I didn’t use here hahah)

ryland is obvi meant to be girl dad.

and uhm if you think ryland is whipped for you. that man did not stand a chance once you guys had your baby girl.

he reads to her every night. even as a newborn and she can’t understand what he’s even saying he’s reading to her every night. “we’re in a literary crisis! i want her to be well versed.” he whisper-yells one night when you ask, hoping not to wake her up.

she’s such a daddy’s girl. you bottle feed her, and she only ever wants ryland to feed her. “you know i make the milk that feeds her,” you pout, sitting across from ryland as you pump. “maybe she just wants you to take a break.” he makes little faces at her while holding her bottle. your baby smiles and laughs looking at him. and you admit your heart does swell watching them.

of course, her first word is “dada” and ryland cries when he hears her. you snap your head towards her. of course you wanted her first word to be mama, but you’re just as excited to hear her talk. he runs over to her, picking her up from her high chair. “can you say it again, honey? dada. say dada.” she starts giggling and she repeats it. he’s now fully sobbing. you walk over wrapping your arms around them. “i’m so proud of you baby girl,” he says kissing her chubby cheeks. he turns to kiss your forehead, “thank you for making me her dada.”

once she’s a toddler, she is a yapper, just like her dad. the two of them get into long conversations about everything under the sun. why the sky is blue, why does the moon follow them at night, why do trees grow so tall? and he answers every one in as much detail as she can comprehend.

when he takes her to to her first day of kindergarten, he’s a fucking mess. she keeps looking at him asking him why he’s crying and he’s just like “you’re a big girl now sweetie. you’re daddy is so proud of you.” you have to drag him out of the the classroom, and he sobs the entire way home. “you don’t think we could home school her?” he asks, trying to wipe away his tears in the car.

when he picks her up she is so happy to see him and tell him all about the friends she made. he takes her for ice cream and asks her if she’s sure she wants to go back the next day.

but i could also totally see him having a little boy who is basically his exact clone in every single way.
