Latest portrait! This one felt like it had a bit of a different flow compared to previous portraits and I don’t know why. At various stages I see-sawed between working too tightly and wanting to take things looser and more free. Here’s how things ended up. A3, graphite on paper #graphite #pencil

Evening sketching does not provide the best lighting when taking a photo of said sketch. 🫠

Quick charcoal study

*taps mic* Hi!! I've been trying to improve my gouache painting by doing portrait studies. I completed 50 within the year and then @darrenwellsart.bsky.social filmed a video of the sketchbook. Please enjoy <3 youtu.be/h9BeMDXmZOs?...

It’s been a while since the last #redditgetsdrawn, so here’s one I couldn’t pass up. Made with Procreate. #DigitalPainting #Portrait

Here’s Alex from the Museum / Sktchy community. #Sketchbook #Art #Drawing #Portrait

I call this one “😱”. #Sketchbook #Art #Drawing #Portrait

Lunchtime sketch

Ever made a thing where it seemed like you knew how things were going right up until the last minute, when you decided to remove a bunch of what you’d made and change how it looks entirely? Yeah, that was me.

Here’s a portrait of Haley from the Sktchy/Museum community. Made with Procreate. #portraitart #digitalart

First one in a long while that wasn’t rescued from the unfinished folder. Feeling a bit rusty, truth be told, but hopefully it’s the start of more to come. Sasha S from the Sktchy/Museum community. Made with #Procreate. #art #digitalart #portraitart

Another one from the unfinished folder, this one of Ashley G from the Museum/Sktchy community. Tried some different brushes too, with these pastels taking me a bit out of my comfort zone. Made with #Procreate #art #digitalart #portraitart

Long time no art, and with this one having spent far too long in my unfinished folder, I figured it was time to get it done. Made with #Procreate #art #digitalart #portraitart #painting

Taking things super loose and brushy with this portrait of Dannika Rose Sullivan. Wanted to keep every brushstroke on the canvas and try something a bit different, and this reference fit the bill. Made with Procreate. #art #digitalart #procreate #portraitart #painting

Painted in Procreate, study. #Art #DigitalArt

The urge to draw someone is overtaken by the emptiness of not knowing who to draw. 🫠 Send me your faces, your poses, your reference pics!

Lunchtime sketch

Sketch I did a while ago but didn’t post because I wasn’t sure if it was any good. Still not sure.

Lunchtime sketch

Traditional *anything* is still a medium I’m finding my feet with, and I’d like us to all ignore that formless smudge where a pearl necklace should be. And yet there’s something about this that… kind of works for me? So here we are: willow charcoal, toned paper, kneadable eraser.

Not pictured: letting them eat cake. Here’s Sarafina Herself from the Sktchy / Museum community as a tea-sipping Marie Antoinette. Made with Procreate. #art #digitalart #procreate #marieantoinette #portraitart #painting

Last night’s sketch

Lately I’ve been doing more traditional sketches, playing around with that look digitally, and absorbing the works of John Singer Sargent. All of that has collided into this, a portrait of Victoria M from the Sktchy/Museum community. Let me know if you’d like to see more of this look!
