Here is my most recent #progress #comparison, my A4 #portrait of Hayao Miyazaki from the end of December with an A5 portrait I did last January. I feel like I made good progress #lastyear with my #drawing so this is a self #motivational post to get back on the horse after the long Xmas break. Both of these were #straightToPen but on the Dec one I drew on #greypaper and used #whitepencil too. Happy belated birthday Mr Miyazaki 🎂 https://www.instagram.com/p/BsYhr00Fv12/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dmbkxbatqxoa

Invisible ink!! Swipe to see my #drawing (which you can only see under UV light). This is mystery ink 23 so I'll let you all know what it is when I find out. Drawn with jinhao 750 #fountainpen. I felt like a #SecretAgent 😂👀 @seawhiteofbrighton #sketchbook https://www.instagram.com/p/BsSexublLk_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x1qwtuwhgz4c

Finally finished my #portrait of Hayao Miyazaki. It seems to take much longer on A4. I remember drawing him about this time last year (because it's his birthday in Jan). I might post a personal progress comparison because they're quite different 😂. I actually wanted to draw a girl this time (after a month of #MovemberPortrait) but because of the O2 data outage I had to draw from references that were already on my phone. How do you pick what you draw? The fountain pen is @Twsbi Vac700R #fountainpen (with custom xxxf nib) filled with #deAtramentis black document #ink. The #whitepencil is a #FaberCastell #polychromos. Also used #unipinfineline 0.05mm. https://www.instagram.com/p/BrlDUmslucO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=q0atow36xx5n

#LifeDrawing 15min A4 pencil sketch of Robert sitting at @LondonDrawing. Got all out of sequence with posting recently so I seem to have a lot to post. I'll start with this one which I posted on my blog at the beginning of the month 😂 #drawnfromlife https://www.instagram.com/p/BribBQQFigu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ajevb1xwm7ze

This was supposed to be my last #movemberportrait but I started another one yesterday 😂 Anyway, I enjoyed drawing on a slightly bigger format (this is A4 which is twice as bit as my usual A5 size). I sketched in with 0.05 uni pin pen first then added which pencil (pictured) for all but the brightest highlights (for which I used the gelly roll pen). I did the darker thin black lines with my @twsbi fountain pen (pictured) and the thicker areas of black and dark grey with the Pilot Futayaku Double-Sided Brush pen. When I first started drawing this picture I didn't know who it was but with a bit of googling I found out that this was Sir #JohnHurt. What a truly #fantastic #mustache 😂 https://www.instagram.com/p/BrGK1pnlqxZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=omp8lx2cm56g

#lifedrawing with @londondrawing from a few Fridays ago which I forgot to post until now 😂 this is smaller than the others on this sketchbook because it's only 1/2 of the A3 page (I thought I'd be doing two side by side) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqsXO5-FERc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p145hvh0qqy9

Happy #Thanksgiving to all my American friends. This picture is a #throwback to March of this year when I was drawing my #Orange #Portraits series (don't worry I'm not starting again 😂) I was drawing directly with an orange #pentelPrushPen. I really liked this one so thought it might be worth showing it again now for #throwbackThursday #movember hahaha. The guy was from the #RedditGetsDrawn subreddit where people put up their pictures to be drawn by artists.

I've a little backlog of these to get through since I lost track during inktober 😂 #Lifedrawing 30min A3 pencil of a model laying down l(with @LondonDrawing) I was quite high on a stool and close to the model (as always with the Tuesday venue) hence the rather looming view of the pose. We started with 5 two minute warm up poses (for us and the model) before going into a 30minute pose (pictured). For the two minute poses I drew quite large with my jumbo 8b pencil and was finding that I was running out of space and drawing over myself quite a lot but I do quite like the way they look all together like that, you can see them on my blog post. For the longer pose I drew with my mechanical 2b pencil, jumbo 8b and #tombow mono eraser over my pre-papared Koh-i-noor #GraphitePowder page. https://www.instagram.com/p/BqebWONlbEd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zph7urpgizm5
