Hassan has eight children in his family, and bed-ridden himself- facing the possibility of having his leg amputated. They are seeking to evacuate Gaza for better health and a more sterile environment.
Sara’s family is currently in Gaza, while her ill father made it to Egypt, much of her family is still in Gaza and wants nothing more than to get them out.
Alaa and Ola are both mothers of young children and are looking for support in the way of diapers, formula, passports, visas, etc. They’re hope is to leave their home, as much as thay hurts to do.

All of these fundraisers are verified through this Linktree called Funds for Gaza.
GoFundMe’s minimum required donation is $5.00 (USD). So if you can afford that, please consider sending some help these folks’ way!
Or take a look at the Operation Olive Branch spreadsheet for more verified links to fundraisers to help people evacuate Gaza.
It takes less than five minutes (less if you already have a GoFundMe account) and it helps save peoples lives.So please donate if you can and if you can’t at least reblog this!
“And I would like to spend hmmmmmnnn” was literally the line delivery heard around the world. Even David Tennant’s sworn enemies, the Bafta voters, were like….ok girl
As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how “inaccessible art” is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.
Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.
Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)
Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price)
SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)
Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)
The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney)
Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)
Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.
đź“šHere is my list:
The “how to draw manga” series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.
“Creating characters with personality” by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.
“Albinus on anatomy” by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.
“Artistic Anatomy” by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.
“Directing the story” by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.
“Animal Anatomy for Artists” by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.
“Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations” by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.
“Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand” by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.
“An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist” by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.
As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are more expensive.
For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.
đź’»As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.
Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates)
Procreate ( pay once for $9.99)
Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, ect Free)
PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)
Krita (Free)
mypaint (free)
FireAlpaca (free)
Libresprite (free, for pixel art)
Those are the ones I can recall.
So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.
I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn’t take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don’t have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.
