it's interesting how much the independent art commission market is built around a highly codified set of etiquettes (and often even written rules) which are understood as law.. that under no circumstances at all would actually hold up in any IP law case

this ends up on my mind pretty often because sometimes people do write out the actual laws around that sort of thing and, because they're unfamiliar, it's assumed that they're an unusually draconian personal policy of that artist in particular

tips on drawing hair?

tried to make a little explanation of the two ways I like to draw hair, blocky and flowy!

sorry my examples are terrible LOL but that is kind of how I visualize things in my Mind Palace. for blockier shapes of hair I think of a sheet of fabric or a sheet of paper that's been cut into big strands. for flowier hair it's more like water flowing in every direction and it's more homogenous and fluffy in how it moves...am I making any sense!!!!!!

wavy hair is the easiest to me since nearly any shape you come up with can work, it's just a little soft serve shape 8)

My cats have this meow that means "please come with me to fix this" after which they'll lead me to the problem in question, usually a empty (or 'empty') food bowl or a closed door they want open. They look at the 'problem', they look back at me, clear message.

What fascinates me is how this illustrates what they percieve as being in the realm of my 'power.' I control the food, I control the door, sure, but my cats love to sit on the balcony in the sun, and it has happened plenty of times that on a rainy day they come get me, go to the balcony and show me... the rain. "Please fix this" they say. "Please get rid of the wet"

"Silly kitty," I say, "I can't control the rain." I then walk into the shower and turn on the rain.
