It's been a while since I've worked on a sincere, longer-form landscape study. I still had to keep a time limit of one hour on this, but I still had a lot of fun focusing on this. Daily drawing 2472.

📓🎨 Relaxing Sketchbook Painting Process ★Trying Arrtx 60 Color Direct Liquid Ink Acrylic Markers

Filling a page in my Big A4 Watercolor Sketchbook! Arrtx sent me their 60-Color Direct Liquid Ink Acrylic Markers to try out :) i originally planned on including this sketchbook session in a vlog but ended up recording for 3 hours haha so i decided to make it it's own video. I really enjoyed painting with them and i think I'll like it even more once I'm a bit more familiar with them

After swatching all 60 colors in my sketchbook i switched over to my watercolor sketchbook to paint some portraits. I've been wanting to paint some really dramatically lit faces and figured this was the perfect time to try.

No Social Media, YouTube, or TV for a week! ✷ T.A.W wk 4, drawing everyday, & Seattle apartment bits

This is a long one!! So i hope you're ready for a super chonky & chatty week in my life vlog! i recorded SO MUCH this week haha. i guess getting off your phone will do that. i found week four really tough and have had a hard time getting into week five since I've been so busy :( I'm hoping since i have this video finished now (it took forever to edit this massive thing! lol) i'll be able to focus on my sketchbook art and doing the tasks for the rest of the week :)

struggling through week 3 ✸ the artist's way, art everyday, & life in Seattle

it's week 3!! i would love to know if you would like me to keep sharing my progress of working through the artist's way? i was feeling low energy all week so it's an extra chill one! i really struggled to make art everyday and did a little less than i had hoped for the week but i ended the week feeling a lot better than how i felt at the start so that's good!

I’ve been dabbling in riso printing! I’ve been trying to figure out how I can translate my soft digital style into a risograph by separating all the color channels. I have not printed them yet, so I have no idea if they’ll work ~ I still need to pick the final colors!
