Aura and Percy

 Sketching some best pals today

(Would love a pegasus as a best pal...just able to fly off to wherever you wanted )

Mermay

 Something's caught their eye out to sea... What could it be?

Mermay

 Late to the #mermay party, but here's my first overworked offering could have tinkered away forever. Don't think I'd ever drawn a #hippocampus for mermay before, so rectified that!

May the 5th be with you

 Here's a sketchy sketch for #MayThe5thBeWithYou day.

Washings a doddle when you're a #sithlord as everything goes through as darks.

May the 4th be with you

 Happy #starwarsday. Even Supreme Leaders have to put their pants on one leg at a time like everyone else.

Character sketch

 Another meanie character sketch boo hiss!

Sketch

 Drawing mermaids instead of things I'm meant to be doing

Draw this in your own style

 Coloured up the sketch from yesterday! I love these #drawthisinyourstyle challenges, they're always good fun and @KatyHalford1's characters are too lovely to resist!

Something I pitched for, but just missed out on

 Can finally show some samples for a thing that I missed out on a couple of months back, the author choose another illustrator, but I was really pleased with how this little character turned out!

Character sketches

 She's a meanie more roughing characters today! .... Sketching out a character this evening

Sketch

 WHOOOO! We've made it to the weekend and only a few days until you can have a few pals in your garden I think this calls for eating an early Easter egg or ice-cream all weekend gang!

Map sketch

 Have been back in writing/editing mode of late with my chapter book idea and have started roughing out a map where it takes place! Here's a snippet. Making maps is long and calls for intense bursts of concentration it turns out

International Women's Day

 Some of my fictional female heroines for #internationalwomensday2021 These ladies also date me to a specific time ha! But from an early age, She-Ra, Alanna the Lioness, Catwoman and Belle have empowered me in different ways from my childhood all the way through til now  

Happy world Book Day

 Happy World Book Day!! The Band's enjoying re reading their story #BandTogether today They'd love to see any pictures you might have of you enjoying the book! Just tag their manager @chloillustrates on twitter and she'll share them!

Draw Moor prompt

 Here's @BeckaMoor's #DrawMoor prompt 'a monkey butler on skates, delivering something VERY important'......don't think he's factored in the phone line!  

Draw this in your own style

Had a go at @timbudgen's #pandarina #drawthisinyourstyle which you should check out! Made Princess Skye a bit older, but kinda like it! Point those toes!

DrawMoor

 Here's a sketch for this week’s #DrawMoor prompt 'A grumpy mermaid at an underwater tea party.' Shame no one's turned up for this mermaids tea party!

Quite fancied not doing anything too finished for a change, was a fun thing to do to wind down my evening after ticking off my to do lists!

Finals finished!

I have finished all the drawing and colouring of a project six days early! It's an actual, organisational marvel! Now to go through and amend all the glaring errors and probable continuity things, but still! I'd be off to the pub to celebrate my hard work if I could!

Princess Rey Rey and BB8

Warm down sketch of #rey and #bb8

Missing seeing and hanging out with my friends LOADS and going on a long road trip to see my folks. Roll on spring. Hopefully, it'll be easier and safer then!

Wednesday vibes

twelfth night

Packed the decs up a bit earlier than usual. I always keep them up til 12th night, but the tree was looking dead and was starting to smell plus it's Monday tomorrow, good day to start the new year properly.The adult in me is very pleased, but the kid in me is sad to see it all come down. Have you still got yours up? Or ditched the decs already?
