North Berwick is my fav day trip from Edinburgh on a cold bright day (specifically: Steampunk Coffee and then the beach)

This year I’m filling up a Hobonichi Techo planner with (almost) daily drawings! ⬇️ life drawing classroom, between poses

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)

my newest video is up!! drawing in a Tokyo cat cafe, plus retro video game shopping & a wander round Shinjuku www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAVU...

the Japan artist vlogs are taking FOREVER to edit but I am so proud of them and I think they're going to be great 🐒

WIP 🌀 finishing off some japan sketchbook pages. This was Kamakura

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 spent a month in Tokyo! It was incredible! I got back a few days ago but still feeling 🫨 like did that happen? Was that a dream? How do i go back to normal life??

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.

the problem is i want to play every video game and there are only finite hours in a lifetime

editing editing ~ I'm working on a video about collaging with the origami papers I got in Japan 🐍

My Japan sketchbook tour ❣️ This whole trip was so full of magic and joy, looking back thru this book makes me so happy youtu.be/SruyPc1UqSE?...

market doodles day 2 🐁

Thought bubble 2024 💫 Tb is unlike any other con. there's such an emphasis on small artists and original work and handmade zines and community and aaaah it was just so lovely and so great

This drawing is a bit out of date now (hair is longer and not blue), but it seems as good an introduction as any for a new platform.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!

Today’s art market was ✨crickets✨ because of the snow, so I sat at my stall and drew dalmatians
