Come join me for some fun and colorful studies! 🌼 I really want to improve my colored pencil skills, and studying some cute portraits while adding fun pops of green, blue, even purple, feels like a breath of fresh air! ☘️ It's a great exercise to see beyond the colors I think I see in a reference, and to really look closely. I need to keep practicing though! What do you think? 💖 #drawing #studies #portrait #coloredpencils #prismacolor #sketch #cozy #illustration

It's almost time to say goodbye to this beautiful season. 🍂 I was really inspired by the different shapes and colors of the fallen leaves, and couldn't let this time pass by without exploring them a little bit more. 🥰 I hope you enjoy this cozy one ❤️ 🍎 Oh and the step-by-step process behind this piece is now available on my Patreon!

Let's play with some pen and ink! 🖤 there's something so classy about these silhouettes, so pretty and flowy. And ohh what the beautiful strokes of a simple ballpoint pen and some grey washes do to my brain 🥰 I hope you enjoy seeing some of these up close 🌧 #sketchbook #drawing #ink #cozy #girls #vintage #pen #illustration #sketch

Oh to be her, covered in Nature 🍃 This was just a flowy sketch that I wasn't going to post - but as I went, there was just something special about this messiness of colors and shapes that I wanted to share 🥰 So bright and colorful, I hope you enjoy this closer look at a few of the details 💫 Have an amazing weekend ahead 🌦 #sketchbook #drawing #illustration #nature #coloredpencils #alcoholmarkers #ohuhu #prismacolor #color #messy #mood

Let’s unbox the biggest display tablet I’ve ever tried! Huion just sent me the Huion Kamvas 24 (4k), and I had a blast using it to create this warm and festive illustration. ⭐️ Since I’ve been using their products since my first ever digital drawing, I knew that this would be a great experience. 🩵 Huion creates high quality and reliable products for artists of all skill levels, so they have something for everyone. But if you’re interested in knowing more about the Huion Kamvas 24 (4k), here are my thoughts! 😊 Pros: - High quality screen with vibrant and accurate colors; - I love the anti-glare, matte finish of the screen - it’s super comfortable for the eyes, as someone who usually spends many hours straight working on digital illustrations; - The pressure sensitivity and pen are awesome as always; - I love that they send their Keydial mini alongside this drawing tablet, since this one doesn’t have any hotkeys; - It has a USB-C to USB-C cable which enables you to connect it to different devices, like your phone and tablet, which is super handy! Cons: - Even though this tablet’s built-in stand is really sleek and beautiful, it only supports a set degree tilt. You can buy an adjustable stand separately, but still it would be great to have it already adjustable for different people’s needs and comfort. - It’s really big - this can be a great thing if you love to have all your references open and spread across the screen, but for me, I find that it’s more than what I actually need. If you draw mostly digitally and often work on massive projects, I can see how this would be perfect for you - but if you prefer to have a smaller and more flexible workspace you can find other smaller models that they have on their website. Stay tuned for a very special surprise coming soon, and thank you Huion for another great opportunity 🥰 Huion store: https://bit.ly/3BA6eCC @huiontablet #huiontablet #huion #drawing #illustration #digitalart #christmas

Drawing with my favorite blue pencil 💙 This time focusing on the smallest details on her clothes and accessories. It's so much fun to play around with different shapes and shading! 🥰 Pencil: Caran D'Ache Supracolor II Soft, Ultramarine 140 #sketcbook #drawing #blue #illustration #sketch

Oh I love these colors so much 💜 Lately I've been exploring layering more alcohol markers on top of each other, and the results have been so fun! It creates super interesting hue variations and even what looks like transparent clothing seems more achievable when you embrace being a bit more playful with different splashes of color 🥰 Plus, these pants were incredibly satisfying to make! ✨️ #drawing #art #illustration #alcoholmarkers #coloredpencils

Oh what a beautiful and colorful mess 🌿🌷 made with alcohol markers, colored pencils, ink and acrylic markers! It's so much fun to play with different materials and not take things too seriously 💙 sometimes the most satisfying result comes from letting go of any expectations, and I definitely felt that with this one. Hope you enjoy this playful spread! 🥰 #drawing #sketchbook #art #illustration #ohuhu #arrtx #colorful
