One of the other bits of art I'll sometimes do is collage building. I admit to recycling bits of everyday things from candy wrappers and ramen noodles lids to packaging information for later use. I do use a bit of my own artwork but that's not really the focal point and therefore, it's being excluded from tags.
Not all of us get to grow older. And not all of us that do get to grow up.
Let's do what we can to be good to one another and to ourselves.
Let's make the most of this life while we have it.
I'm recently gathering people who like to draw to download this app, 'Stellog'. It's not fully activated yet but If you'd like to share your drawings or doodles via mobile phone, I recommend you to join the Doodle Universe and join other people! I'm currently perform as a concierge, and you can freely message to me in there, and hope we can do many things like Gartic show, or drawing together irt! I love animes like Gumball, Advernture time, Gravity falls and so on... Hope we can meet there!

Cutting Crew is a humanoid colony Stand with the ability to switch the height and width of objects. Consisting of 12 units clad in jumpsuits, they each come equipped with a jetpack and handheld blaster. The blaster is utilized in swapping the height and width of objects, with a minimum of 1 blaster per object. If multiple blasters are used above the minimum amount, the swap process is sped up.
A JoJo Stand concept that I had saved from a generator and finally got around to drawing.

I highly recommend the book, Gender and Competition: How Men and Women Approach Work and Play Differently, by Kathleen J. DeBoer.
In it, among other things, she elucidates that those with a conceptually masculine perspective (regardless of sex) are drawn to thinking of the world in hierarchies, which I have represented here with a triangle in the mind of the spotter on the left. She elaborates that those with a conceptually feminine perspective (again, regardless of sex) are draw to thinking of the world in webs, which I have represented here with a circle.
Those that think more masculine-ly are more likely to expect beginners in a sport or field to prove themselves in the group. They will often not "hold their punches" (i.e. curb their ability) to make newcomers comfortable. All members of the group are expected to "earn their keep," in a sense. When a member of the group exceeds expectations, they move up in the hierarchy.
Contrary to that, those that think more feminine-ly likely show acceptance and approval to beginners in order to foster an environment in which they will perform. They will often adjust their skills so that newcomers can more readily "keep up." When a member of the group exceeds expectations, they are expected to raise the status of the group as a whole. The playing field is "flattened" in that sense.
I am not advocating for either perspective, but I will share that I have a more conceptually feminine perspective, and that I have previously left groups whose members have a more masculine perspective.
Kathleen's book really helped me personally to understand the motivations of people that I genuinely did not understand prior to reading the book. It put a lot into perspective for me, and I hold fewer grudges these days.

Continuing to look at the mysteries of plants used as bush medicine by Indigenous people in the East Kimberley of Western Australia. These two plants are common throughout the area. The one on the left is used for colds and the right for soap. How many of us would know what to look for?
