Day 24 #100daysofpeople I didn’t quite capture the likeness here but sketchbook pages are for sketchy practicing. I’d love to get better at capturing people more quickly with simple lines. This ones based on @emma_louise_sophia whose feed is filled with inspiring photos and soulful words. . . . . #draweverydamnday #illustratorsofinstagram #portraitdrawing #illustration #illustrationartists #illustration_best #carveouttimeforart #emergingartist #art_spotlight #100dayproject #100daysofdrawingpeople #creativityeveryday #storytelling #artchallenge #bevisuallyinspired #peoplesketching #reportageillustration #createthings #drawingchallenge #blackandwhite #seekinspirecreate

Day 23 #100daysofpeople a continuous line drawing. Thought I’d create a little collection of this for the shop so this ones now up on Etsy. I’m hoping to keep adding more original work 🌿 . . . . #draweverydamnday #illustratorsofinstagram #portraitdrawing #illustration #illustrationartists #illustration_best #carveouttimeforart #emergingartist #art_spotlight #100dayproject #100daysofdrawingpeople #creativityeveryday #storytelling #artchallenge #bevisuallyinspired #peoplesketching #reportageillustration #createthings #drawingchallenge #continuouslinedrawing #apartmenttherapy #foryourwalls #blackandwhite #seekinspirecreate

Day 22 #100daysofpeople I fell a bit behind for a few days and wow today I felt rusty with the pen. In fact the first sketch got ripped out of my sketchbook 😂 something I never normally do but here’s to getting back to drawing daily. Thanks for the suggestion @little_strings_music 💛🌿 . . . . #draweverydamnday #illustratorsofinstagram #portraitdrawing #illustration #illustrationartists #illustration_best #carveouttimeforart #emergingartist #art_spotlight #100dayproject #100daysofdrawingpeople #creativityeveryday #storytelling #artchallenge #bevisuallyinspired #peoplesketching #reportageillustration #createthings #jonimitchell #drawingchallenge #fanart

#ad I had so much fun creating these drawings with the lovely art range from @PentelUK 🌿 I wanted to see how the different materials would create a different image so firstly I created a pencil drawing which I then scanned and printed to have 4 images to work with. Firstly staying in my comfort zone and using fine liners and patterns - I’m super fussy with pens as I look for the least bleed and these worked fab. It’s so lovely to have a range of different thicknesses to work with as I tend to stick with 0.4. I then took a little side step outside of my comfort zone... colour! But still using pens and markers still so not toooo scary. These sparkly ones are so fun as they change colour depending on whether they have a white or black background. Next I worked with these gorgeous watercolour pencils, something I’ve always wanted to experiment with and get skilled at. I was really impressed with the depth of the colours and had fun splashing around the water using the water brushes - I imagine these would be fantastic for travelling. I surprised myself with how easily I took to playing with colour. Finally the ones I was most uncertain of, oil pastels - and yet this turned out to be my absolute favourite creation. I’ll definitely be using these for more future artworks. I loved the more muted colours but still so much depth and the texture created. I think there’s probably lots of techniques for better using oil pastels but I just went wild and free. After creating the other 3 images I was so loosened up. Can’t think of a better way to spend an afternoon #CreativeInspirations #PentelUK

My favourite beach, I’m not too sure I want to share it as it’s always empty, but @janetbellhome is having a competition for a super cute pair of sandals so I couldn’t resist sharing this photo. It’s hidden behind Conwy castle away from the bustling tourists and usually @y0ng1, Frankie and me have it to ourselves.

Day 20 #100daysofpeople the likeness isn’t quite right but when drawing with a biro you can’t rub out the lines that go wrong so they just have to be embraced. Last night me and @y0ng1 watched Good Will Hunting (so damn good.), there are so many classic films I haven’t seen yet, what should we add to the list of must watch? (My suggestions back would be: Searching for Sugarman, Into the Wild, Coffee and Cigarettes and everything ever created by Wes Anderson) . . . . #draweverydamnday #illustratorsofinstagram #portraitdrawing #illustration #illustrationartists #illustration_best #carveouttimeforart #emergingartist #art_spotlight #100dayproject #100daysofdrawingpeople #creativityeveryday #storytelling #artchallenge #bevisuallyinspired #peoplesketching #reportageillustration #createthings #createthingshavefun #goodwillhunting #robinwilliams #drawingchallenge #fanart
