Emma Donnelly

Today’s been really tough, I’ve been sat in the same position for the last couple of weeks for like 16 hours a day and finally my osteoporosis has caught up with me. My shoulders, arms, hands and knees have been causing me all kinds of grief, I’ve just been sad and in pain all day 😞 So I’ve been cycling through my photos to remind myself of some happy, and to remind myself that my body is capable of good things and that I have some truly wonderful people who I call friends. Just as a reminder, if you feel like helping a sick girl out check out my Etsy store. Link is in my bio, or you can search emmadonnellyshoppe in the Etsy search bar. I’m currently running free uk shipping, so if you had your eye on something now is the time to buy 💖 . . . . . . . . . . . . . #illustration #illustrator #illo #editorialillustration #artist #art #artistsoninstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #avocado #cute #cutemerch #merch #etsy #etsyuk #etsyselleruk #cutetees #green #vegan #ecofriendly #feminine #sickgirlsclub #invisibleillness #buildaladder (at Shrewsbury, Shropshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrQ2CdGhNeD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1or82gzjuttd8

U OK HUN 💖⚡️ Another one from the wee hours. I’m just enjoying colour at the moment, colour and line weight and getting the balance between the two. Idk, but I’m tired and I’m going out for coffee, nobody can stop me. . . . . . . . . . #illustration #illustrator #illustratorsoninstagram #illo #spotillustration #magazineillustrations #editorialillustration #doodle #sketch #art #artist #artistsoninstagram #limitedcolorpalette #uokhun #freelance #freelanceillustrator (at Shrewsbury, Shropshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrKxZqyBawa/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1e0wahoftmcwj

✨time to move on babe✨ Idk it’s really late at night and I’m playing with colour pallets - fun side note, I named that yellow colour ‘cornbread’. . . . . . . . . . #illustration #illustrator #illustratorsoninstagram #illo #editorialillustration #spotillustration #art #artist #artistsoninstagram #doodle #sketch #limitedcolorpalette #limitedcolourpalette #technology #applewatch #breakup #magazineillustration #femme #femmeart #feminine (at Shrewsbury, Shropshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrJobvnBX8l/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lax8mo4mh0x6

‘Yo ma’ can you quit calling me, I’m trying to read Sylvia Plath stoned.’ Or Atleast that’s what I was thinking when I drew this 😎✨ I’m not nearly that cool. . . . . . . . . #illustration #illustrator #illustratorsoninstagram #illo #spotillustration #editorialillustration #art #artist #artistsoninstagram #doodle #sketch #limitedcolourpalette #primarycolours #feminine #femmeart #femme (at Shrewsbury, Shropshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrGpl7ZFmr8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7orpajzb70eq

Hay guys! I’m sorry I’ve been working a lot this passed week. We also went Ceilidh dancing at the weekend and it was a blast! I’ve also been a little stressed out about working freelance in between full time stuff, but I’m starting to get better at balancing myself 💖 I’m in a better place, and I’m working hard. Feels good 💖 . . . . . . . . . . . #illustration #illustrator #illustrationartists #illo #art #artists #artistsoninstagram #doodle #sketch (at Shrewsbury, Shropshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq_DCuOBZl6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=b3ousskf7h0d

Hay guys, It’s been a couple of days - I’ve been updating literally all technology in my life because we’ve finally got internet. So I’ve been enjoying some time not fully drawing while doing so 😊 I’ve been planning this drawing out for a few days though and it’s turned out super nice!! It’s the first time I’ve ever used the Coolours app, and boy I am in love! Highly recommend it if you’re wanting a limited colour pallet 😊 Anyway, I hope everyone has been okay, enjoyed their weekend and got through the case of the Mondays 💖 . . . . . . . . . #illustration #illustrator #illustratorsoninstagram #illo #editorialillustration #spotillustration #freelanceillustrator #art #artist #artistsoninstagram #doodle #sketch #feminine #cute #food #foodillustration #cooking #colour (at Shrewsbury, Shropshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqqMao_BFUH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1caof9zm9lo2t

Hay guys! Working on my father-in-laws band poster and it’s not all together post-able yet, so here’s a little doodly-do of a cute babe that I did while waiting for my computer to update. . . . . . . . . . #illustration #illustrator #illo #illustratorsoninstagram #art #artist #artistsoninstagram #doodle #sketch #cute #feminine (at Shrewsbury, Shropshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqdZ0SFh9k2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pi8lzwwax6zh

Hay guys, you know how I like doing fake gig posters, well here’s the final version of last nights WIP! I flippin’ love Honeyblood, they have been the soundtrack to my days since I first discovered them in 2014, and they just keep on giving! To two wonderful ladies and their crew, I can’t wait to hear your new album! . . . . . . . . . . . . #honeyblood #illustration #illustrator #illostagram #illo #illustratorsoninstagram #art #artist #artstagram #artistsoninstagram #posterillustration #editorialillustration #spotillustration #bandposter #gigposter #doodle #sketch #pink #feminine #girlband #punk (at Shrewsbury, Shropshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqYVcwLBMaQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gq579uz90j7c

Been taking a break from drawing, having coffee at one of my favourite independent coffee shops @bloomingskullcoffee 💖 it’s been great to just relax and do a bit of self care 😊 https://www.instagram.com/p/BqUyRpnBtTx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nhl3msrw1qod

Hay guys, no new illustration again tonight ~ sorry! Just on our way back from London, after staying for a couple of nights with my gorgeous pal Diane and her Dad (who gave us two avocados, a massive pot of hummus and home made sesame snacks 😍) Here’s one of the few shots from the @courtneymelba concert in Brixton that I got. I usually don’t subscribe to the idea of filming and photographing concerts, I think you should enjoy them without a screen in front of you - but my god the lighting at this gig was so good and Courtney was so energetic that I had to snap a few sneaky ones 💖 honestly if you get a chance to see this gal, do because she is simply sublime! #courtneybarnett #milkrecords #o2academybrixton (at O2 Academy Brixton) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqN2PPbBbyy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qkyt2hf43rrs

Hay guys! I’m sorry, no new illustration tonight - too busy off galavanting around London 😘 so here’s and oldie, but a goodie 💖 some inky kiddos! I always imagined doing a story with the short black haired girl, but it never came to fruition. Maybe some day in the future ✨✨✨ . . . . . . . . . . #illustration #illustrator #illustratorsoninstagram #ink #spotillustration #art #artist #artistsoninstagram #editorial #editorialillustration #inkwash #childrensillustration #doodle #sketch (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqKy1xlhUm3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13at9yt084luz

‘Hay so a couple weeks ago I got asked to do a poster for my fave babe Courtney Barnett for her show at the o2 Academy Brixton!’ Joking (sadly) but me and Jake are seeing @courtneymelba tomorrow night and are SUPER EXCITED!

Aw man, we all knew this day would come but wished it never would. RIP Stan, I grew up on the Saturday Morning Cartoons of your creations. Thankyou for encouraging others creatively.
