​Well, this is my picture so far. I still have a lot to do...

So, I had a first attempt at the picture but it was trashed by someone I don't know. It didn't deter me, though. It just made me want to do better than the last time. The first picture was my starting of the new picture. All I had was the basic structure of my figure's head. It was easier drawing the head this time seeing how I did it when I did the previous one. The second picture is what I got done today. I was able to get some details on the face and a bit of the torso done. I think the female torso is really difficult, because on a female there are subtle or noticeable curves on the body that really set me off cause I can never make them proportionate on the body... that and I've been drawing mainly male anatomy for most of my artistic life and really can't draw females much...

Anyway, this is what I've got!

Knowing the Spanish alphabet is just as important as knowing the English Alphabet. It has many uses and many reasons. I am going to teach you how to be able to spell out words in both English and Spanish and so that you can easily interpret what is being said through spelling. Use the chart below to see how the Alphabet is written in Spanish. 

In the video below, we are demonstrating how when you are meeting someone who is very fluent in Spanish and you want to learn the Alphabet, you guys can study together and learn the Alphabet the right way. 

In spanish convertations, keep in mind how to show proper respect to others.
 Tu is used for a causal way of talking, were as usted is used in a more formal way.
Tu you would basically use when you are talking to peers, friends, or anyone the same age as you. Usted is used when you talk to someone with an important title (say, the president) an adult, or someone older than you.

Here's an example between to friends-

SPANISH
​Amy- "Hola! Como estas (tu)?
Ellen- "Hola! Moy Bien, gracias. Y tu?"
Amy- " Mas o menos, gracias."
Ellen- "Adios!"
Amy- "Adios!"

ENGLISH
Amy- " Hello! How are you doing?"
Ellen- Hello! Very good, thank you. And you?"
Amy- " Regular, thanks."
Ellen-" Good bye!"
Amy- " Goodbye!"

Now lets see an example of a more formal converstaion between a girl and her mothers friend:

SPANSIH
Girl- " Hola, Como esta ( Ud.)?"
Woman- " Hola, Muy bien, gracias. Y tü?"
Girl- "Muy bien, gracias."
Woman- " Adios!"
Girl- " Adios senorita!"


ENGLISH
Girl- " Hello, how are you miss?"
Woman- " Very good, thank you. And you?"
Girl-" Very good, thank you."
Woman- " Goodbye!"
Girl-" Goodbye Ms.!"

Here's a lesson from my pareja on how to say the days of the week in Spanish!

Its important to learn the weather in spanish. Here's a lesson to help:
When you want to know the temperture, you would say- " Que tiempo?"
Then, someone would reply: " Hace......" (or, it is.)
When watching the news, you also need to know if its going to be cold, warm, hot, or freezing:
"El calor" = Hot
" Frio"= Cold
"Sol"= sunny
" humedo"=humid
"lloviendo"= rainy
" Viento"=windy
" Nevando"=snow
