A drawing in the newly bound skinny book using a fabriano academia paper with 25 pgs. Biggest book I’ve worked in. It’s 11” tall, 14”(open)wide and only 3/8” thick. I wanted a book just for drawings of this years garden. Something light I could walk around with and draw in. We’ll see if I cut myself short on pages. ☺️ So far I’m really liking it. It’s fairly light weight and rigid enough to drawn in without needing to clip it to anything. This drawing is of one of the back yard beds. The theme in flower colours turned out to be purple and white. Curtesy of my mom that decided what to plant back here for annuals. Everything wAs still a bit small when I did this but it’s growing fast now. I’m also going straight in with ink pen so some of my spacing and proportions are off. It worked out not too badly though. Tricky part right now is trying to find the right time to draw outside without me melting in the sun. So far anytime before 930 am or (the winner time slot for me) has been after 9pm before sundown. @fabrianoinacquarello @fabriano_boutique #fabriano #fabrianoacademia #yegarts #angiesot #paperlove #handmadebooks #bookbinding https://www.instagram.com/p/CQwRsEgBs-5/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ok friends! I have had a TON of things on the go over here and very little social media time but the tide is about to turn. Starting tomorrow it’s Drawlloween! For those that don’t know it’s a month long Hallowe’en themed “drawing event held by @mabgraves I say “drawing” because any medium is welcome. Most years the way I do this is by experimenting with a new paper or medium and I combine it with one of my creatures in the prompt. This year I want to expand my plant creature roster so it won’t be themed around one creature but I’m hoping to create new ones ever day. 😧 We’ll see how this goes. As for WHAT I’m going to be creating all my drawings on, I’m going digital on my ipad in Procreate. I’ve been trying to get better with digital art tools and this will definitely give me a month long intensive to grow and become better. So buckle up! Many plant-y creatures coming your way this month!...with a Halloween twist ☺️ #mabsdrawlloweenclub #mabsdrawlloweenclub2020 #societyofcuriouscreatures #yegartist #angiesot #procreate https://www.instagram.com/p/CFx0FZpgLIK/?igshid=aba103fve5o5

Gathering bits from the garden to use for inspiration and use. This is my favourite time of year outside until freeze up starts. #materialsmonday #yeggardens #dryingbotanicals #yegartist #angiesot https://www.instagram.com/p/CDu--Mmg8aZ/?igshid=d4hk64mnjhru

Hey Friends! Its been awhile. How’s everyone doing? The world has gotta a bit crazy this year huh. It’s taken me awhile to sort through it all. The last post was a bit of a false start to the year. Needless to say, things have changed and new plans are in the works for some creature love. Hope you’ll all stay tuned for what’s next. Stay safe and take care of each other out there. #hifishcus #societyofcuriouscreatures #sketching #yegarts #angiesot https://www.instagram.com/p/CBJI1xSAoO4/?igshid=1550z74h500zk
