TRUST and BELIEVE me when I say as Black model you draw Black people and POC in general so beautifully!! If whoever commented that were to see my drawings, they would think I’m some Rando drawing caricature of Black people, because I’m still a beginner and not that great at it yet!!!

But when I tell you when I see your art and your comics, hello from IG and discord by the way 💖!! You nail everything 10 out of 10 will come again down to the hairstyles to the facial expressions to the outfits that you put them in!! I’ve shown your comics to my black friends and they love your art!! You’re doing fantastic 💖💖!! I think whoever commented that was just trolling!!

I'm having a moment of severe weakness/anxiety but I got a very shocking anon a couple days ago that said the way I draw Black people seems racist and I guess I just wanted to ask any of my Black followers if you've ever had concerns about antiblack insensitivity from me or my art

I've read up on caricatures so I know what to avoid, but maybe I missed something? I've also asked friends and they all said it was likely a troll since the anon used a slur, but I want to use it as a learning opportunity in case I sincerely fucked up
