Another page of my sketch book - stabilo all pencil, black gouache and metallics for the little stars in the background. . . . #art #illustration#drawing #100dayproject #100faces #pencildrawing #picoftheday #stabilo #gouache #portrait #australianartist #artjournal #canberraartist #sketchbook

Another #inktober2017 picture. I'm feeling much more confident about using pens to line my drawings now, and my hand is a lot steadier than it was when I last tried pen a year ago. It's very satisfying feeling that progress. . . . #ink #inktober #copicmultiliner #art #illustration #drawing #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pen #artsy #instaart #beautiful #instagood #creative #photooftheday #instaartist #graphic #graphics #artoftheday

I've been trying to draw today but my cat bebechan has other ideas :( . . #art #catsareassholes #catsofinstagram #catssittingonthings #tryingtoart

I've been practising drawing and painting wings the last few days. I'm quite happy with how these ones turned out! . . #inktober2017 #inktober #angel #wings #instaart #ink #art #illustration #drawing #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pen #pencil #artsy #canberraartist #australianartist #learningtopaint

I don't think this picture looks like something I would paint at all! It was fun to do though :) . . #art #illustration #drawing #ink #inktober2017 #pen #portrait #inktober #100dayproject #100faces #pink #copicmultiliner

Here's another entry for #inktober - she was supposed to be a glam Goth for the #inkredibletober prompt list but she turned into something completely different and I'm really not mad about it. . . #art #illustration#drawing #ink #inktober2017 #pen #portrait #flowers #instaart #picoftheday #artinspiration #artist #canberraartist #australianartist #learningtopaint

Today's #inktober prompt is "raven". I've decided to abandon my own prompt list and start following the one published by @janedavenport. . This was created with the inkredible pen, #mermaidmarkers, #janedavenportmixedmedia and a Jane Davenport face stamp. . #inkredibletober #inkredibletoberchallenge #davenpeeps #inktober2017 #raven #art #illustration #drawing #draw #portrait #100dayproject #100faces #instaart #picoftheday

Here's my first day of #inktober :) I kind of butchered the shading on her face, but hey it can only get better from here! I've been really excited to participate in #inktober2017 because I'm finally at the stage where I'm confident enough to try new art supplies and branch out with new techniques. Oh I almost forgot, the prompt I used for this was "from a reference picture". More exciting prompts to come I promise! . . #art #illustration #drawing #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pen #ink #portrait #canberraartist #liquitex #liquitexink #drawingpractice #100dayproject #100faces #picoftheday #arteveryday #instaart

This pic was shamelessly copied from one of my artist Inspirations - @moon_mxtr. Moon did his version of the pic a few days ago and I have looked at it longingly every day since. Mine doesn't do his justice, but I'm still so happy with how it turned out! . . #artistinspiration #art #illustration #drawing #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pen #pencil #artsy #instaart #beautiful #instagood #gallery #masterpiece #creative #instaartist #artoftheday

I've been playing with ink the last few days in preparation for inktober. I've had #liquitex acrylic inks for a long time and will use them occasionally, but I confess they are a supply I do not really understand how to use well. I'm planning on making my own #inktober prompt list to follow. Would anyone be interested in seeing it? And is anyone else planning on doing inktober? If you are, let me know so we can cheer each other on! . Thanks to @g_turtley for the craft paper! . . #art #illustration #drawing #draw #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #artsy #instaart #instagood #creative #instaartist #artoftheday #ink #acrylicink

Ah watercolor, how I have missed you. I've been spending a lot of time with coloured pencils lately, but I think it's time I revisited watercolor. Today, I painted this woman during my lunch break at work. I'm quite happy with the result of her! There's something so fun about painting in greyscale. . . . #watercolor #paintpractice #100faces #art #illustration #drawing #draw #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pen #pencil #artsy #instaart #beautiful #instagood #gallery #creative #instaartist #artoftheday

Does anyone else ever feel, part way through their artwork, that this is the moment things could turn out amazing, or terribly? For me, this is that moment! I really love what I have done so far, and want to keep going, but I don't want to ruin it :) As a side note, I drew this girl completely from my imagination without any reference pics! A big deal for me 🙃 . . . . #wip #art #illustration #drawing #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #gouache #pencil #artsy #instaart #beautiful #instagood #gallery #masterpiece #creative #coloredpencil #instaartist #100faces #portrait #artoftheday

Here's a random face :) contemplating whether or not to add colour to it.

Looking over my images from the last few months, I am definitely seeing a lot of favourite colours emerging. I think this picture today includes all of them! Pinks, teals, deep blues call to me and make me so happy to use 😊 . . . . #coloredpencil #art #illustration #drawing #draw #picture #artist #sketch #sketchbook #paper #pen #pencil #artsy #instaart #beautiful #instagood #gallery #creative #instaartist #graphic #graphics #artoftheday
