every time i listen to “you’re a mean one mr. grinch” i can’t help but sit there and think “what did the grinch do to hurt you?” because dude just stands there for 2 minutes and 58 seconds and drags the grinch into the dirt
he stole christmas, kayla! stop with your #notallgrinches propaganda!
you know what if someone told me i was a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce i’d probably be bitter enough to steal christmas too
Interestingly, though The Grinch Who Stole Christmas is narrated by Boris Karloff, the big musical number is sung by the late Thurl Ravenscroft – an American voice actor better known as the voice of Tony the Tiger.
My headcanon is that the Grinch and Tony the Tiger had a bad breakup, and “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” is the resulting breakup song.
Did this really HAVE to be the first thing I see when I opened up Tumblr?
test how big you can write and how small you can write
zooming in is an act of discomfort, so don’t do it. atleast not for this excercize.
Think of it as callibrating yourself, maybe also try line exercizes
Lines just not looking right? Or not exactly on point? Well you callibrate your pen to your screen, why not yourself? *shrug*
Write and draw like you’re scribbling in a journal traditionally.
If you’re separating your writing and drawing when you draw digitally, then that might be a subconscious block keeping you from just emersing yourself completly in your work. I struggle really badly focusing, and always feeling like i should be either typing up my thoughts or writing them traditionally just breaks my train of thought. And it just hit me one day and i wondered: Why the heck don’t i just write digitally?
What to write about?
Anything. The character you’re designing, their features, a story about them, whatever the heck you’re thinking about, even about your brushes and in ways they might be changed. Be messy. (on another layer)
Get nervous writing?
1. You don’t have to worry about anyone reading it, its not an essay that has to be perfect.
2. Your hand writing doesn’t need to look perfect, only as long as you can read it.
3. Write short hand, how you write texting your friends, however you like.
4. Its not an essay for school. Its your own rambly nonsense and its absolutely fine.
I know, its really weird. But the way human brains and emotions and nerves work IS weird. Like, for myself, sometimes i get so locked up i can’t think straight? But when i sit down and start writing, It helps me unlock and think better, sort out my thoughts.
I hope this helps! i know its odd advice, but i just felt motivated to post about it.
