Yeah because it's a really good way and first step to drawing anatomy.
what you should not do is what i'm doing.
Drawing anatomy line for line.
That will not help in the long run.

You go from drawing stick figures, and then you slowly kinda draw more shapes.
Even a simple triangle for the torso is PERFECT.
you don't have to master extreme anatomy until you are much better.
The study of real anatomy like the skeleton and bone structure is an advanced technique.
meaning if you are not advanced you shouldn't start advanced if you are at the basic level.

It's honestly okay to draw bad bodies when you are first learning.
It's a learning process.

Ooh. I didn't know that.

Thanks for the tips! I'll have to get more used to shapes and stuff then, maybe I can sneak onto YouTube in class and watch some videos where they teach you how to draw in shapes later today.

On youtube a channel called swatches is super informative.
he has a fundamental series.
if you look for one like shapes and forms, i'd watch that one as it's super informative.

I guess it'd be quite the view when one is inside, probably not so much otherwise.

Religion is what drew the final line between my parents and myself. :(

They're super mega religious and I'm definitely not, and who I am goes against a ton of their personal beliefs. :(
Blah.
I can't stand religious fanatics who use their religion to judge others. >.<

I never understood loving any religion over your child. I mean if you really believe in something like that, fine, cool, but when it comes to your kids, how can you not love them unconditionally? At least for something like just being themselves.

I'm glad my parents aren't really religious (that I know of), I'm not a religious person at all and I'd really not mesh well with having to be in one. D:

Judging others because of a religion is just so stupid to me.

My grandmother is a lot more understanding as she's been in this religion for like...50 years.
and my dad maybe 5-6 years and he is the one sneaking behind my back having his friends come over. he literally gave out my phone number to someone who wants to study with me WITHOUT my consent and just told me "such and such is going to be calling you sometime."
like...um...no??

and having her stop by and NOT tell me beforehand until she's at my house
feels like an invasion of privacy.

yeah. he's been pushing this on me for like last couple of year.
i guess it is what it is. and honestly religion is last on my mind.
My health is a priority. especially since i have pretty bad depression.

My thoughts exactly. My family was in a religion for about 10 years but we weren't really very dedicated to it for all that time. There were a lot of things that my mom said didn't make sense, funny enough one of them being shunning your own children...., so yeah, we left haha. We're agnostic now and it's so much nicer

That's definitely invading your privacy! Can you block the numbers?

I wouldn't be surprised if he's convinced that his religion will 'help you miraculously overcome your depression' somehow.

Since my sis and i share the phone she just mutes the ringtone.

as far my depression he told my the bible will somehow "cure" me.
not me since i have not told him my depression.
but he says it will cure people with depression.
no way i'm telling him i have it bad.

I tell him nothing about my life.

That's good that you're putting yourself and your mental health first. Just let him do what he wants -- doesn't mean you have to listen to them. ;) Let it go in one ear and out the other.

I've never understood how someone who swears to love their kids can let something like religion get in the way of that love... :/
They're allowed to believe whatever they want to believe, but you'd think that they'd want to be there for their kids... BECAUSE of the decisons they made, they really don't see my brother anymore (my brother has stood up for me against them multiple times) and they've never met Emily or James, and haven't been in Norah's life since she was one. :/ It's been rough... I would never treat my kids how my parent's treated me (All because I was going to live with a man out of wedlock... and I'm bi... You'd think that the fact that I HAD A CHILD OUT OF WEDLOCK would have been an issue to them... but apparently those two other things were a bigger issue to them than having premarital sex and getting pregnant without being married......? I truly don't get my parents. And I'm right there with you - I just don't get how parents can judge their own kids and treat them the way that my parents have treated me -- because I'm myself and I found someone who loved me and my daughter and who accepted me and her as a package deal?
It's just all a big mess and I know that I'll never ever do what they did to me to my kids. Also sorry if this was super rambly... I'm exhausted and not totally thinking straight.


Also Mene keeps signing me out -- IDK why but it's annoying to have to keep signing back in! D:

Do you have the remember me box checked? I think a few people fixed that by clicking that.

At the very least, even though it doesn't fix anything with your parents and it's still super awful that they chose to be like that, you know what not to do. Not that you would without that, but still. I hope I'm making sense
