Chimpanzee
On July 14, 1960 Jane Goodall began her 6 year study on the human-like behavior of chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park in Tanzania. Since all species closely related to humans are extinct, the endangered chimpanzee is now evolutionary the closest to us.

Should be interesting 🐵

Average
My art has it written all over it. It’s the mean value of a set of numbers, yet originally derived from the Arabic averie, which means the damage after a ship has been wrecked. Re my art, I just have to keep pushing, not give up. Eventually it will improve.

Fence
I had such a great sketch in mind… Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea after all. Sometime you need to adjust an ambitious plan. Anyway, I need to sketch more from reference, without downright copying, see the big shapes, and copy those.

It seems the best mindset to learn is to be humble, accept that you know only a little, and be patient. Learning is like gardening, new ideas are more like kernels, slowly grown and matured. Brains tend to relate established ideas with who you are and with who you belong to.

Squash
I highly recommend against an image search on this word, since you cannot unsee when what seems funny in a cartoon world has happened in real life. More disgusting is that someone actually photographed and uploaded it. This is why we can’t have nice things ☹️

It gives me animation vibes—squash & stretch 💪

Hip
Not in any way an admirer of fast fashion, I’m pretty unaware what is fashionable and trendy. It seems all so exploitative and wasteful. The idea seems to be to wear something for a few weeks, then throw it away and buy something else. It’s very trendy with the youth.

Auto-NomNom-Y
Many want cars that drive themselves, so they can munch while being transported. It’s like Elon’s DC against Nikola’s AC, yet not at all, and certainly impossible when there are people involved, some of whom feel more equal than those who are not (like) them.

Seat
The red and blue chair, designed by Gerrit Rietveld between 1919 and 1922. It was an attempt to make good minimalist furniture available to the masses. It was priced in 1923 at ƒ15 (± €126 nowadays). Professionally made replicas retail for €1500 and up.

Proportion
I always had problems with measuring; I was never very exact with it. For drawing it meant that likeness required more work and more attention. Even though it doesn’t look like it, the sketch took me over 90 minutes and still it’s all wrong, wrong, wrong!

Such an art-making related word.

Iceland is an altogether unique island state which an active volcano and stunning landscapes, and a surprising temperate climate for its Northern latitude, so close to the arctic circle.

No, it literally is “is.” »Chuckle« Y’know, the word the adulterous president 🤥🎩 tried to redefine, that is it is, is 🤔❔
