The Apricot Land

Doodles, noodles, my journey of drawing

[apricot-land]

💫 May the 4th be with you! 💫 Do I have any fellow Starwars fans out here? I was so happy I found time to draw Rey (or should I say MeRey?!) for this day and also for #MERMAY! 🐠 It was so fun to draw her bumpy hair style and to mesh up these two themes together! I need to improve my tail drawing skills though. 🐋 Thank you for the fintastic list @mermay_official ! . . . #mermay2021 #starwars #starwarsfanart #maythe4thbewithyou #maythe4th #mermaid #reymermaid #starwarsmermaid #rey #starwarsrey #mermaidart #maytheforcebewithyou #starwarscharacterdrawing drawingchallenge #characterdrawing #procreate #digitalart #vevedraws #underwaterlife #fiercemermaid  #visdev https://www.instagram.com/p/COdQXNMDyhu/?igshid=11wr7mnc58dn1

Blue haired gal. 💙🌟 So this happens when I ditch on references and I just doodle and chill. 😶 How do you like this style? I needed some rest from more (semi)realistic painting and @berndt_art #drawthisinyourstyle challenge was just perfect for that! I enjoyed it so much, experimenting, going with the flow and just having fun.  Hope you don’t mind that I'm jumping from one art style to another. I guess I'll forever be guilty of having various styles of drawing. It’s my curse. Or destiny?! 🔮 👉 Swipe for close-up and the original amazing character! . . . #berndtart1100 #procreatelearner #learningtodrawdigitally  #digitalartchallenges2021 #artchallenges2021 #illustrationchallenge2021 #digitalartistart #digitalartofinstagram #illustrationchallenge2021 #digitalartchallenge #drawthisinyourownstyle #bluehair #lovethemusic #digitalartistportal #dtiys2021 #drawthisinyourstyle2021 #dtiys #drawthisinyourstylechallenge #drawthisinyourstyle https://www.instagram.com/p/COS7nWQjPBg/?igshid=oslxjpgkjit6

As you know I am not a pro at backgrounds! And there was a lot of experimenting woth light and color too! Took me way longer that I expected!

I drew this MONTHS ago and totally forgot to post it! Who else is GUILTY of being super forgetful? 🙈 I drew this even before intober, when I was experimenting woth texture a bit - swipe right to check to closeup. By the way how do you like these bright colors? Hope it doesn't hurt your eyes. 👀❤ . . . #ipadproart #ipadpro #procreate #procreateart #drawing #art #artistsofinstagram #artist #czechart #czechillustrator #cutegirlart #brightcolors #characterdesign #digitalpainting #digitalcharacter #orange #cutecharacter #inktober #forgetful #pinkhair #scarf #sunglasses #icecream #visdev #cartoon https://www.instagram.com/p/CKUJR3hjwwX/?igshid=wz6zk6t8n9hf

Guys... I drew guys! 😱 Let's get messy here! You know one of my problems is that I don't do as much sketches as I'd like - I always end up doing finished drawings because, logically, I can post them here and share them with you guys. But who says you have to always share neat finished drawings? Why not to show the messy (and sometimes painful) process of sketching aswell? So here it is - not my best work, but PRACTICE MAKES PROGRESS, right? 😊 Hope you don't mind seeing these! What do you think about posting sketches? Wanna see more or lets hide them? 🙈😅 Let me know! . . . #messysketch #guysketch #digitalart #digitalsketch #sketching #digitalsketching #digitalsketchbook #sketchbook #guys #menillustration #maxpacks #digitalmarkers #instaart #illustrationoftheday #visdev #characterdesign #ipadart #ipadproart #aczechillustrator #czechillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/CKMbM3djvlp/?igshid=1ji2cupmb3j13

✨ ARTIST RESOLUTIONS 2021 ✨ What are yours? The main one I want to focus on is to do more sketches instead of finished pieces! I want to have more loose drawings where I experiment cause I tend to draw everything too neatly and stiffly - am I the only person who loves messy drawings but my brain just does not allow me to do them? 🤦🏼‍♀️😅 I saw many artists drawing their resolutions so I though I'd join. If you know the author of this idea let me know so I can share them! . . . #artistresolutions2021 #resolution #resolutions2021 #2021 #2021resolutions #artresolutions #art #artist #czechartist #czechillustrator #characterdesign #cuteart #selfportrait #digitalart #procreate #procreateart #femaleart #illustration #visdev #cuteillustration #instaart #digitalillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/CKE_MEvDscu/?igshid=beib7tmmre4v

So this happens when I decide to study a photo to learn anatomy... 😅 I just liked the clothes too much and had to turn her into a character. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Does this happen to you aswell? Or am I the only one who's not good at sticking to my plans. 😅 Oh well I think you'll soon see a colored version of this girl aswell. Any tips for the hair color? 😊 . . . #characterdrawing #digitalart #digitalartist #instaart #illustrationoftheday #artist #artistsoninstagram #digitalillustration #art #sketch #visdev #characterdesign #cutegirl #womanofillustration #womanillustration #procreate #vevedraws #digitalsketch #digitalcharacter #maxpacks https://www.instagram.com/p/CJthdAyDmKl/?igshid=5aukd3wzbwtz

I had to joine @radu.k.art drawing challenge - first of all her character is super cute and second of all, we live in the same country and I for sure want to support czech illustrators. 🇨🇿 So go give her some love. ❤ The challenge has no deadline so come and join to! Can't wait to check out your versions. In this drawing I (yet again!) tried something a bit different. I kinda like the texture.

I couldn't resist joining this #drawthisinyourstyle challenge. Who here is a fan of @odnatamyara ? ❤ To be honest lately I felt really bad about my art. I was trying a lot of new techniques and motives I never drawed such as landscapes and digitalpainting style and the results made me so sad. I know it takes time to get better but sometimes it just gets to me. Especially once I compare myself to others which I do way to often. 🤦🏼‍♀️ So to cheer myself up I joined this fun challenge and I just drew, not putting any pressure on myself. No rush, I was simply having fun with shapes and new brushes. And it really helped a lot.😊 So if you are feeling down just draw something simple that you enjoy and don't worry about the resultntoo much. ❤ What do you guys do when you feel overwhelmed and not happy with your drawings? . . . #odnatamyara117k @odnatamyara #dtiys #illustagram #characterdrawing #instaart #dtiyschallenge #artchallenge #drawingart #artchallenhe2020 #ipadpro #procreate #procreate5 #maxpacks #procreatebrushes #gouachemaxpack #learningtodraw #procreateart #digitalchallenge #digitalillustration #instaartist #rainbowhair #characterdesign #visdev #characterart https://www.instagram.com/p/CIQ0N16D849/?igshid=1kbm6z9omi2g3

🍂Time to learn something new. 🍂 My first attempt on landscape digital painting. 🙈 This is super new for me. But I had a lot of fun and can't waot to draw another one - this time with less layers and time! Cause I need to loosen up. Do ypi guys loke drawing landscapes? Let me know if you know any good tips or tutorials! ❤ To create this drawing I followed a tutorial by @loisvb from her book Sketchbook of Loish. She draws in Photoshop though so I had to often improvise in Procreate a bit. . . . #illustrationart #illustragram #digitalart #landscape #procreate #ipaddrawing #illustration #illustrator #automnvibes #autumn #procreateart #illustratedart #illustrationdrawing #digitallandscape #sketching #czechillustration #czechillustrator #forest #artwork #drawingsketch #learningtodraw #art #artistsofinstagram #artist #digitalpainting https://www.instagram.com/p/CH51MeoD4tK/?igshid=1w1uymn6gzvre

Ready to see something messy? 🙈 I don't love sharing unfinished stuff but it's time to step out of my confort zone! I want to learn a lot of new drawing techniques in the following months and I'd like to share the whole process with you. Even the messy parts! This is a base sketch for a digital painting I am working on. I want to learn digital painting so badly! Let's ge to it! 💪 How do you guys like seeing these behid the scene posts? 🙈 😶 . . . I've posted the same post before but it had some bugs so I reposted this again, sorry for the confusion. 🌼 #learningtodraw #processvideo #artvideo #digitalart #digitalprocess #digitalsketching #digitaldrawing #howtodraw #behindthescenes #procreate #procreateprocessvideo #procreateart #arttutorial #messysketch #ipadpro #characterdesign #visdev #characterillustration #digitalillustration #illustrator #czechartist #czechillustrator https://www.instagram.com/p/CHyF-FPDkCy/?igshid=1ctpa3rov9gcw
