Drawing lesson with notes from the teacher

Had an online drawing lesson today. The left part is my try. The right part is the teacher explaining what you have to pay attention to.

Notes from the teacher: The forehead line is nice, and the pupils are beautiful.

Also, I got homework 😁

Reminder that I'll be at the Big Queer Bloom Boom market on Saturday! These two drawings, "Bath Time" and "Reclaim" were favorites at the last Holigay market.

Envelope with a hand-written Japanese address of a film lab in Hyogo Prefecture.

I received a batch of developed films and scanned images from the film lab today. Until I’ve had time to go through them and hopefully show a few, here’s a photo of the envelope on which I had written the address for sending them in. 😇

An animal looking stone statue in front of a red torii shrine gate

What's the name of this animal in front of shrines that acts as a guard? There are usually two of them, one on the right and one on the left, referring to 阿吽(あうん a un) the beginning and the end of the universe in Buddhism.

I still enjoyed its moist texture together with the tea 🍵

Plumtrees bloom earlier than cherry blossom trees, and the blossoms are simpler, representing the traditional Japanese lifestyle more accurately compared to the frilly sakura 桜 (tree 木 woman 女 katakana tsu ツ)
