Hi everyone! 🥰
Yesterday I started filming a new bonus video for you! Members in the Devoted Dragonfly tier voted for me to draw fighting poses, so here’s a sneak-peek! 👊🏼✨
I wanted to draw poses that are sort of mid-action, rather than poses that look settled and steady. I think the mid-movement look helps to capture more lively poses, and makes them appear less stiff! :)
I chat while I draw in the video, and ...

Hi hi everyone! :)
Here’s an early look at a new drawing I made to practice metal and a fun pose! ✨ I loved the idea of drawing a fantasy character with a modern twist 🤭 The ref is mossysocks on insta, I totally recommend looking him up if you want some good fantasy themed references! He looks just like Prince Caspian from Narnia 👀🖤

I wanted to show you a sneak-peek of my current WIP!

Hello everyone! ☺️
Here is the drawing process for my recent drawing, Text 💗✨ This started out as an experiment/warmup that I ended up finishing 😄 I’ve never drawn a piece like this before where it’s divided vertically, and I’ve also never painted cell phone lighting before! The palette was really outside my comfort zone, so I learned a lot from this:)
You can see my references in the beginning of the video, lots of cell phone light imagery to in...

Here’s an early look at a new drawing I’ve been working on! This started out as just a fun warmup that I didn’t plan on finishing, but I kinda liked how it looked so I decided to render it 🥰💗
This kind of lighting is sooo hard for me because the shadows on the faces are reversed, plus it’s really dark! I don’t normally use lots of purple or dark blues either, so the color scheme was outsi...
