On Tuesday I shared a bunch of drawings (paintings) I did whilst we were away on holidays in August 2024. We’ve been to Croatia and I did a lot of landscap drawings with mixed media in my two favourite kind of sketchbooks, the one form Royal Talens and the Graduate series from Canson. Today I’dContinue reading “More Croatia Scenes from my Sketchbook”

Trying out the Arrtx 126 Colored Pencils
Welcome to this review video of the 126 colored pencils from Arrtx . They were so kind and send them to me so I could try them out. I use colored pencils mainly for drawing in my sketchbook.

Drawing from Vintage Books
Today I am sharing some sketchbook pages that are drawn from two of my favourite vintage art books. It’s from Thorburn’s Mammals & Thorburn’s Birds. These books are so beautiful and inspiring! I love drawing from them as the images are already rendered and that makes it easier to interpret them more loosely than drawingContinue reading “Drawing from Vintage Books”
Loose Watercolor Sketching
Sometimes when I don’t have much time to draw or when I am low on energy, I just grab my watercolors and draw loosely. I love doing this and often the results are quite pretty! Today I am sharing three pigeons! For the one on the top left I have a little process clip forContinue reading “Loose Watercolor Sketching”
Landscape Sketches from Mapcrunch
