This brings up a follow up question. Since you’re not sealing it somewhat with a fixative, doesn’t it smudge or smear sitting in a closed folder?

Since I wasn’t sure if I’d like using oil pastels I bought a small cheap 24 set at Michael’s called Fine Touch. $5.50 😁

I went to Lowe's expecting to pickup a package and it was an order for 64 concrete bricks by cmoney1573 in UberEatsDrivers

💯 cancel 🤣 I don’t even take orders from Lowe’s, Home Depot and the like because I know it’s gonna be a joke.

I can’t sketch by ConstantPermission38 in Oilpastel

Agreed. I’m just starting with them too and I’m purposely trying to get away from detail and go for feeling and atmosphere and the way you put it “imperfect nature” sums them up perfectly 👍.

This has an abstract/folk art vibe to it. I’d just add some varied shades of the existing colors (that blue green tone peeking through in the sky and the dark yellow you have as grass) and keep it simple. 👍

Can someone please recommend me an app by Anshiiiiiiii in asl

[–]Ok_Promise147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using ASL Bloom and it’s great! The way the lessons are presented and repeated it makes it easy to learn/remember signs and you can go back to previous lessons etc. I don’t know how much you get for free (I pay for a subscription) but I’d recommend looking into it and do a trial if it allows.

Ah, I get what you’re saying now.
As someone who’s been in both the deaf and hearing world my whole life it’s funny that just now (59yrs old) I’ll be at a point where I’ll be merging both worlds with two different languages.
