Well they are excellent rule followers. Worm apocalypse averted.

Been wanting to improve your drawing skills but have no clue how to do it? Consider Greenworms! While your Greenworm may not be able to hold a pencil herself, she can be essential in improving your knowledge and eventually getting to the level you want to be at! You'll be a regular Picasso with the assistance of your cute Greenworm!

One of the biggest hurdles that burgeoning artists face when it comes to drawing living things is understanding how exactly flesh and various body parts sit and move on the body. Greenworms are a great way to learn about these concepts. With the vast amount of squishy flesh, lots of moving parts, and the ability to contort into many shapes, it's easy to better learn just how you're supposed to draw these various things. In this way, your Greenworm is the perfect living model. Since Greenworms have built in clothes, using them as models isn't as awkward as it can be with other people or mamono, since you can draw their body's curvature without having to strip them down. On top of all this, they say that drawing something you love makes you that much more willing to do better. Your earnest Greenworm is doing her best to help you learn, I guarantee that you will answer those feelings with your own best attempts to get better! You'll get better in no time with her help!

After seeing some late night Leanan Sidhe programming on TV, I thought that it would be a good idea to try out some portrait drawing. As you would expect, that meant my Greenworm would be my model of course! After getting some supplies, we got started with the drawing process. She held some poses while I took my time drawing her, making sure to study every contour and line that was across her small body. Occasionally I would go over and give her a little poke to see how her squishy body would move if put in a slightly different position or under different elements. We took occasional breaks during the drawing process, as it's clearly a bad idea to draw on an empty stomach. It was lots of work but I felt like I learned quite a bit from drawing my Greenworm!

Eventually, my Greenworm wanted to see what progress I had made with my learning. I was embarrassed to show her what I had been working on, but I decided to show it to her. It was a picture of her with a big smile on her face, telling me "I love you". She looked flustered while I explained to her that she was always saying how much she loved it around here and I wanted to envision her at her happiest. Eventually she smiled and looked a me, saying "I love you". She laughed and said that I didn't just need to draw those feelings, as I was able to experience it whenever I wanted. After giving her a loving pat on the head I went back to drawing, only this time I took breaks to talk with my Greenworm. Before I knew it, my drawings of her were looking even better than before. This is all thanks to the loving care that my Greenworm gave me!

I'm sure that if you want to improve at drawing, getting help from your Greenworm is the way to go. You'll be better than you could possibly imagine before you realize it!
