This drawing is a bit out of date now (hair is longer and not blue), but it seems as good an introduction as any for a new platform. Hi, I’m Fiona! I like to draw!

sometimes art improvement isn't seeing anything substantial *visually*, but realizing you can achieve the same level of quality in half the time compared to before

West End Fair, Edinburgh! 🏴
this is my first time doing an outdoor fair and I am learning lots of lessons (eg do not leave light papery things out on the table or they will 💨disappear💨)

A reminder to my fellow illustrators who do client work- clients should not be asking you to sign over your copyright!! (Unless they want to give you A LOT of money)

A terrible paradox: i brought back a load of cool art supplies from Tokyo and I can’t wait to try them. BUT the second I use them they won’t be new and special anymore and they’ll become part of the rest of my art supplies
Torture!!

I know this makes me sound like an old fuddy duddy, but making my favorite animation list makes me realize just how much I miss hand drawn animation. The little imperfections, the warmth, the lines squiggling here and there. You could feel the humanity in every frame. Everything looks so clean now.

Sometimes it hits me that i actually LIKE my own art most of the time, and how mind blowing that is in comparison to just a few years ago
