there’s a fine line between chilvary and sexist.  on one hand, doing something for a woman is considered nice and gentlemanly.  on the other, doing that something could be construed as believing a woman is incapable of doing it herself.  so where is that fine line?  i haven’t a clue!  i just think sometimes the same could be said in reserve.  there are some things that guys historically do that perhaps woman should do too.

art-wise, i’m getting a bit more used to a new jet brush that allows for thicker, bolder strokes. but it takes a lot more control for the thin, finer lines.  but hopefully the line thickness helps convey the emotion more.
