I finally tried speed painting for my digital art, but my friend says it skips important steps. What do you think?

Hot take: My failed batch of beet kvass has me debating old food crafts

Tried making sauerkraut once and had a cabbage explosion in my pantry. Honestly, some of these old methods fight back.

Reached six months of sketching folks at the coffee shop. Most call it invasive, but I've gotten to know the regulars.

That's awesome, and it's a great way to connect with people without even talking. I used to draw folks on the bus and ended up recognizing a few commuters after a while. It turns a boring wait into something kind of special.

Frustrated with myself for ruining a bob by not sectioning properly

Absolutely! Your stylist is SO right about this. I had a stylist in Seattle who did the exact same thing, and my bob always looked amazing. She said sectioning can make hair look too blocky and fake. It's all about seeing the whole shape and working with how the hair naturally falls. That kind of cut has so much more movement and life. It takes real skill, but when it's done right, it's PERFECT.
