artist-confessions: Improving art has nothing to do with changing you entire art style. I must first apologize for any spelling-errors or grammar mistakes, my first language is Korean. When people start attacking art styles and telling people to draw realism it makes me very sad. I visit art museums regularly and I love art of any form. You can still improve your art style even if it is not “anatomically correct compared to an actual human-being” . Some things can still find it´s way back to realism. Such as light angles , shadows and even perspective. Buying some books on perspective is always a good investment if you are serious about art.I have books on dogs even if I draw cartoon dogs. Because I want to know how the joints of a dog works. When I see people who hate a certain style send post offensive comments on peoples art it really tears me up inside. People hate manga far to much, most just hate it because it is so popular. And it is never OK to hate something just because it is popular. It just feels immature to me. But I have to agree with one thing, do not limit yourself to drawing one thing. If you like to draw pony´s , cats , manga . Try to draw some flowers , work on the background and details on the clothes. Really explore your own abilities when it comes to art. Art styles is kinda like flowers my teacher always said,  and he  said this : “Misshaped and odd, thus some look the same but come in many colors. It is a flower, nonetheless.” - * Translated it from Korean, hope it seems ok. The heart in the background is made by FAETH-DESIGN submitted by - Anonymous

Blackfish - Trailer

Beyond the lies, beneath the deception, the truth will surface.

Magnolia Pictures has debuted the trailer for the chilling Sundance documentary Blackfish, directed Gabriela Cowperthwaite, about orcas in captivity. 

Holy shit. 

OKAY, WE NEED TO REBLOG THE FUCK OUT OF THIS. EVEN IF YOU’RE NOT AN ANIMAL PERSON, YOUR FOLLOWERS NEED TO SEE THIS. ESPECIALLY DURING THE HEIGHT OF VACATION SEASON. DO NOT SUPPORT SEA PARKS WITH CAPTIVE WHALES. IT’S NOT ENVIRONMENTAL PROPAGANDA (I can’t believe I even used those words) IT’S A REAL ISSUE AND IT’S NOT A MATTER OF PROOF, IT’S A MATTER OF COVERING IT UP AND IGNORING IT!
