Picked up digital art again after many years of successfully avoiding it🫣
My ipad was too slow to handle procreate but my main problem was the feeling of the screen under my pen.
Another artist on instagram described it as „trying to wrestle with a slippery fish" while trying to do art...

Went plain air sketching with my boyfriend yesterday and gave him his first lesson in watercolor!
This really was an amazing experience and I have to admit that I don’t spend enough time doing art outdoors😭

I took on the challenge of illustrating Tolkiens poem Errantry!
First I thought it will be 2 or 3 paintings but when I made my image plan I realized that I would need at least 22 illustrations only to get close to capturing the beauty of the poem…
Let me know what you think of the first one!☺️

Just reorganized my art studio!
There were some issues with the old layout and I realized that I could solve all of them by doing these changes:

This is a canvas painting with gouache and acrylics. When I did this one it seemed to me that I managed to create something that was far beyond from my actual skill level at the time and it drove me to dive much deeper into the concept art and fantasy design style I have now! 🌲🏞️
