This would’ve probably been way easier with gouache but it was super fun to try and get watercolour to behave! #watercolor #sketchbook

Working on getting one perspective right… and tomorrow I’m definitely following a hydrangea painting tutorial because trying to figure it out on my own is taking way too long 🤣 #watercolor #sketchbook

Last page of my #sketchbook! This Monet study almost killed me lowkey but it was lots of fun! I gave up on all the little details halfway through to try and focus on the colour and shading 🫡 #oilpastels #art

This was a fun study! It might be basic but Monet’s nymphéas series is my absolute favourite 🥹 Favourite travel experience was definitely sitting at the centre of the giant nymphéas paintings at the Musée de l’Orangerie #sketchbook #oilpastels #art

Is it obvious that I had so much fun making the mountains and the sky in this landscape and hated the process of painting the field? 🤣 #digitalart #landscape

I really prefer fuyu persimmons compared to hachiya, the tastiest crunch ever 🥹 I couldn’t decide what to put in the top background and ended up with these sketchy trees and birds … #digitalart

Still struggling with landscapes 🍄
But! There’s definitely improvement over the past few days. Composition and getting depth without everything muddying up is currently the hardest part for me 🫣

Cats are such precious babies! I love them so much. And getting that sleepy content expression right was a fun process. Tomorrow I’ll focus on drawing flowers with pastels… this is getting a bit embarrassing 😂 #sketchbook #oilpastels

The weather’s getting cold so I keep wanting to draw warm scenes reminiscent of summer, tried underpainting with yellow and focused on getting the gentleness of the ripples of water right for this one #sketchbook #art

Watched a bunch of colour theory videos and tried to apply the learnings with these still lifes. Next I need to figure out shadows!
Pears are one of my favourite fruits; there’s so much variety in their flavour and texture but the underlying ‘pear’-ness is my favourite part! #sketchbook #oilpastel
