Good morning everyone and happy Friday! 💛✨

While I’ve been working on writing my notes for this month’s tutorial video, I’ve been taking little breaks to draw some quick sketches of skaters! ✏️  After sketching some static poses like these, I really want to draw some action poses of skaters 😍 I found so many references on Pinterest and they’re so full of life & energy, it will be really great for practicing movement and also full-body poses ...

Downloadable Color Palette 💌 // Warm Grayscale ✨

Hello everyone & happy Wednesday! 🥰✨

These past few months I’ve been working on a new color palette filled with warm grayscale shades! Whenever I’m sketching I like to use warmer shades of gray/brown because I feel like it adds some richness to the drawing, (especially when used on a very light warm background color! 😍) and so I started saving some of my favorite shades, and now it’s a full color palette! 🙈 So I decided to share it ...

Hello & good morning everyone! 🥰

Here is a little sneak-peek of some character exploration of my OC!

Real Time Process Video: Jasmine 🌟✨

Hello everyone! I hope you're all having a lovely day/night 💛

Right now I’m sitting in a coffee shop while I write this to you and I just finished this little sketch of one of my oc’s! ✏️ You may recognize her from some drawings I’ve made of her in the past, she normally has blue pigtails and some cat ears/demon horns (I can’t decide which one! 🙈) but today I felt like drawing her in some casual clothes so here she is 🦋
