Another late night drawing session. This is a street somewhere in Seoul, and I loved the one point perspective of this shot.
This girl loves some perspective!

🎨When I can’t sleep in the night, I will sometimes get up and draw.
I will draw anything in my camera roll, as you can tell by this drawing of a grocery store freezer section. Lol.
What are your favorite insomnia busters? 🎨
All I want are spring flowers right now. So I did a tutorial of these lovely flowers in a pitcher with a book and some tea, I think. Maybe it’s coffee?
Anyway, I’ll be looking for flowers. 💐

It’s about time I do a clock tutorial! And I did. I will say it’s in honor of the time going back the other weekend. Having more light every evening is life giving for me.
Do you like more light in the evening or does it not make a difference to you?

As it is soon spring, I thought a flower tutorial was in order.
I can’t wait to see the flowers peeking up through the snow. These blooms are making me happy.
What is making you happy today?

About to work on edits on my #wip
What is everyone else up to today?

It was purchased on Ali express, so it was easy to get! 😁
Another Venice scene tutorial. Had such a fun time working on this piece.
Off to find more to do. I’m definitely not avoiding edits! Hahaha. 😂

Look what Ijust got in the mail! A late birthday present, a #Jinx acrylic stand. I love it so much.
Jinx is my favorite Korean Manhwa series. Eeee. Thank you so much Denise!
Completed a super fun tutorial of an old bridge. I love the way it turned out.
I’m super pumped to go back to my Canson watercolor sketchbook. Yay!

I literally just finished this house tutorial today!
I absolutely love doing buildings and houses. They are my jam, I would say. I think the shadows really steal the show here.

I just finished a cottage tutorial. I think the tree and shadow turned out really well. If I do say so myself.

Thank you.
I know, right. The quality paper shows.
🎨 I thought I’d try an experiment, I did the same tutorial on two different kinds of paper.
The streetcar on the left was done in my regular paper sketch pad. It is meant for dry media.
What do you think? 🎨

I did a few tutorials lately to hone my skills. Here is an adorable little cactus. 🌵

Doing tutorials even when I’m working on commissions is helpful for me. There is always down time in working with watercolor (drying time anyone?) and it helps to have something else to work on.
Do you like to multitask?

Another wee little house, from a tutorial.
I love working on buildings.

Thank you so much! ❤️
Playing with different buildings. A fun tutorial.

I just finished another door I was working on before the commissions came in. This is hands down my favorite.
There is still time to book a commission before the holidays, by the way.
In the meantime I’m honing my skills.

While I’m working on commissions, I thought I’d do a super fun practice piece.
I wanted to post something too, as I can’t post the holiday gifts that I’m working on. 😁
#commissionsopened #art #commissions #ink #watercolor #drawing #urbansketching
These are the tools of the trade. The box of watercolors I work with, the posca pen I add white highlights with, the three main brushes I use and the permanent black ink I draw with.
The ink and pen are from Japan. It’s reay hard to find a truly waterproof ink, but this one is the best.
Now is a great time to think of commissioning works for the upcoming holiday season. Do you have a treasured location? A meaningful cottage, old family home?
Feel free to message me with any ideas or questions!

Just honing my skills after some time away from painting and drawing. I completed this tutorial today.
I loved the freedom on just doing a doorway. I could be free with the flowers and stonework.

You are too kind! ❤️😁
Just finished this fun little old truck tutorial. How fun is this? 😀

Today I finished this tutorial of a café and I was on the fence of posting it or not.
I wanted to show even when something doesn’t come together there are still good points I think. 😁

I was recently commissioned to do these two pieces.
The first is the church where the client’s husband’s parents got married in South Africa. The second is a school and a famous type of tree that has purple flowers.
Do you have a unique idea for a commission? Feel free to DM me! 😁
Thank you!
