So what did y’all do for Hearts Day 2025?

Also, I mean, respect man🫡 I find it SUPER hard to draw people at a unique angle. Of course, practice builds skill,

Oh thank you so much. Yeah I have been doing this for quite some time now, over a decade as a professional even.

Do you have any tips on how to get better at dynamic poses?

There is off course the age old adage of üse a reference but I didn't use one for this haha.

No, my real tip would be to break down your figures, whether human, animal or otherwise, into simple shapes. Cubes, boxes, spheres, cylinders. Those are a lot easier to draw in perspective than a full human body.

I didn't do anything for valentines actually, but I am fine with that.

@KevinReijnders ok I see, yeah I’ve heard of that method here and there just been a little apprehensive to try it, seeing as I feel I must become more familiar with the anatomy of plant/animals/humans, but Ill see about giving it a go more often in my drawings, it definitely makes sense so it’ll probably improve my work even more. Tysm for taking the time to share this tip with me.

seeing as I feel I must become more familiar with the anatomy

Well to be fair it all goes hand in hand. The better you understand anatomy, the better you'll be at simplifying a figure. But also, the better you can break down a figure into simplified shapes, the easier you'll be able to understand anatomy.

Got it, so yeah I’ll continue to familiarize myself with anatomy, but practice building a figure from scratch with shapes more often. @KevinReijnders

True, it also helps that their costumes are usually skin tight so you can easily just paint it intop pf the pose and not have to worry about fabric folds or anything. And its so much fun to play around with spider-man costume designs:)

I didn't do anything, either with art/writing or real life. Been going through some things with family, and haven't really had my mind on romance.

Like that, but without the fruit. I'm surprised no one has asked yet

That’s cool still, even without the fruit, it must be soooo delicious @ButterflyEmpress

[BellaTheCow]

Exactly! @Breeze.Hill
