A little quick sketch I did a while ago.

Big cat strutting through the jungle. 

A little digital painting for a very special man. I’m very happy I got to make this for my Granda. It’s of the Grounds Keepers Quarters, St. Stephen’s Green in Dublin.

My painting of Ysera ‘The Dreamer’. One of my favourite characters from the World of Warcraft. 

Silly little doodle of the greatest gaming character of all time 🇮🇹 #mario #supermario #8bit #sketch #sketchbook #drawing #drawings #doodle

A lighthearted sketch. Playing about with flat colours and minimal shading. #drawing #illustration #doodle #drawingoftheday #draw #sketch #sketching (at Dublin, Ireland)

Always looking for something.

The little Dino that could. 

Not really focused on the finer details but looking at the general composition while trying to be loose with form. Inspired by Impressionism to an extent.

A couple of quick gesture drawings, to loosen up. Not worried about about details or colour at this point, just the general shape and form.

A wee number myself and Ays have been working on for some time. Inspired by the song-writing ideals of Fleetwoodmac and John Lennon. 

I know there will never be a better version than the original, but I thought I’d have a wee go at it! One of my all time favourite songs and I hope you like it too.

Still life squirrel ornament I bought from a charity shop and spray painted black so that I could focus on just tone values. Part of my relearning to draw studies! The real challenge will begin when I introduce colour and multiple objects.

Relearning how to draw, this exercise focused on rendering (colouring-in), light, shadow and various other bits and pieces. Very relaxing and a lot of fun to do!

Sounds filthy and is a little special. 

Two point perspective shapes and shading, trying to improve my sketching skills and at the minute I’m going right back to the fundamentals of drawing. Perspective.
