I don’t like drawing baseball caps. The bills give me trouble for some reason. They’re easy to draw backwards, though.

This one’s supposed to be in the aged 7-9, but I think she reads a little older than I meant her to. (I think it’s mostly the glasses.)

This batch skipped the little girl and added an extra 7-9 year old. They said they were a little light on the birthday party theme characters.
I gave the client three options on dress design. The rainbow one was my favorite. Which do you like best?

Yikes... there's a flood of East-Asian looking women coming on Feeld these days. They are all:
1. Straight.
2. 20-something.
3. Have one picture.
4. Don't have text in their dating profile.
5. Don't express any desires or interests.
I've puzzled in the past over this on other platforms. To me, these are either scammers, or parents who try to find their kids some US-based date.
Of course, I pass on all of them.

A #macrophotography #photo of #yellowrocksugar. This, less refined, form of cane #sugar, is common in #EastAsian cuisine. It provides #sweetness without overwhelming sweetness. It can be used to sweeten #tea, #savory cooking, or even #dessert.

Happened across this book. Looks cool, but how can it be "a #comparative study of #breath and #breathing as a core #poetic and compositional principle in modern #literature" if it doesn't discuss #qi #氣 (vital breath)?
Qi, and breathing more generally, are crucial concepts in #Chinese and #EastAsian #poetics over 2 millennia.
Books like this should be renamed "A Poetics of Breathing in 20th-century American, British, and German Literature."
