  • Inktober 2016, part 1

    Inktober adventures on my instagram. All of these have contributed to my left hand feeling much more confident about itself. I already posted two of these, but it felt incomplete to leave them out all because they fit into two categories.

  • ART DUMP! I hate that term but I guess I’m limited in vocabulary and I don’t know what else to call this. Mostly just the painty/inky stuff I thought was worth showing from the past few weeks/months/I can’t remember. Maybe I’ll do a post just for inktober and that will just be a mass of

    Instagram pics from the last week or two! I’m still making no progress on fixing my right hand problems, which got much worse this week because I had to make it hurt to get an MRI scan, and I’m still paying all that right hand use. So, that’s not fun but at least there’s some

    Did this picture a few weeks ago, but was only just able to get a good picture of it to upload last week (my scanner is terrible).  You can find it here on my Redbubble account.  Thanks for watching!

  • Updates, part 4

    Went crazy with some patterns and hands. I like how this one turned out, I’d like to neaten it up on the computer or something later. Also used up two of the cards I’ve been hoarding for no reason, happy I did that. Surface wasn’t awesome for watercolours though, might try the gouache next time.

  • Updates, part 3

    Halfway through my backlog of off hand sketches from instagram. Let’s get to it!   Week… six. I think I stopped keeping track after this one. Also finished the sketchbook, yay! First page of new sketchbook. Starting to gain some confidence with faces. Got a bit carried away with this pattern. Then some leaves, having

  • Updates, part 2

    Adventures in drawing with my off hand, and rediscovering what it was like to draw when I was five. I have tried this a few times in the past, but was never able to keep it up, so I wasn’t starting from completely square one, but there was still a massive skill gap. Also seemed

  • Updates, part 1

    Been a bit slack, again. Starting a full time job an hour and a half away really sucks away the time, but I have been doing arts and junk, just posting it on instagram. Here’s an update, part 1! Did a lot of small sketches mostly on the train, which I didn’t think were worth

    The Black Cat!! My favourite ever ever story by Edgar Allan Poe, ever since I read the version illustrated by Gris Grimsby. Vengeful ghost cat! Terrible animal cruelty and alcoholism! And, of course, insanity and murder. Everything you like about Edgar Allan Poe. I celebrate Halloween by reading scary stories because I don’t live in America,

    Creepy tree and a punk girl with a dragon. I don’t know what I’m going to do after Inktober ends, I’ll be totally out of ideas, haha…

    Two pictures today! Poppies and then dancing. It’s weird, I’d never really seen real poppies until I came to Europe, but every ANZAC Day in Australia we have a whole lot of little plastic ones. Then in the summer here I saw them everywhere and was really excited because they’re so much nicer, haha.

    Rabbits, I can’t draw rabbits. Maybe tomorrow I’ll draw a bilby to make up for it.
