The State Library & Archives of Florida calls this image Seated Girl & Boy Holding Hat. It’s among many beautiful portraits of Black Floridians made by photographer Alvan Harper between 1884 & 1910 whose names were not preserved.
Studio portrait of a young girl and boy, both beautifully dressed, gazing at a point beyond the viewer.

How to pointy: Trying to make a pointy bit on the line art removes volume and makes things flat. Make pointy more round.
Two paintings of a pointy something (maybe a tusk?). One has the line drawing end in a sharp tip, but it feels too flat. The other has it curving around a sharp bend, and it feels more volumetric and awesome.

No better feeling than when someone else’s dog or cat picks you to hang out with, and their owner's always all "awww he likes you" and you play it cool like "he probably just smells my dog" but inside you're just absolutely screaming OF COURSE HE LIKES ME I AM THE CHOSEN ONE AND VERY SPECIAL

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters
All you do is take all the sex out, and use little short words, and little dumb ideas, and don't be too scary, and be sure there's a happy ending. Right? Nothing to it. Write down. Right on.

If you do all that, you might even write Jonathan Livingston Seagull and make twenty billion dollars and have every adult in America reading your book.

But you won't have every kid in America reading your book. They will look at it, and they will see straight through it, with their clear, cold, beady little eyes, and they will put it down, and they will go away. Kids will devour vast amounts of garbage (and it is good for them) but they are not like adults: they have not yet learned to eat plastic.

It's one thing to say "Trump lies regularly," it's another to say "and therefore I will believe any crazy possibility about anything." The fact that Trump and the administration lie about stuff is not a reason to empty your brain-pans and start believing that Trump is staging plots. Get a grip.

When Einstein developed general relativity the closest thing to a practical application that could even be imagined at the time was a slightly more precise description of where to look for the planet Mercury in the sky, and yet now we’d all be literally lost without it. Anyway: fund basic research.
