And it's done. Even with a line art, correct proportions and straight lines were tough. I really did enjoy this even if it was on my least favourite surface.

Something different to broaden my skills. A different subject on a different surface. I have on drawn on Pastelmat a handful of times and haven't been a fan. So many artists sings its praises so I thought I would give it another shot. I still don't love it, but it's growing on me.

My pencils were all over the place, so I bought myself some Ikea drawers....then I had a whinge because they were still rolling around in the drawer. Enter the husband with his trusty tape measure and a router. And Voilà, a custom set of drawer inserts, so no more rolling pencils. Lucky me!

I love those amazing artists who draw in beautiful clothes with perfect hair, immaculate nails and flawless make-up, looking effortlessly elegant. Their posts and reels are always beautifully put together with a gorgeous aesthetic..sadly, that is not me.

I do not have an elegant bone in my body and I am not tech-savvy enough to do any of it anyway.

However, when I am drawing, I am the comfort queen! I usually look like a feral, little gremlin. Faded track pants, oversized jumper or oodie, hair a mess, and the creative supervisor either begging for food or trying to claw her way on to my lap. I am constantly dropping pencils, whacking my knees and elbows on the table or hitting my head on the light.

Anyhoo, thought I would have a crack at some different skin tones and am actually quite enjoying it.

And the little jar of happiness is finished. I love hyper-realism and am plugging away, working on improving my art until I reach that point. This is from Paco Martín Domínguez Colored Pencil Hyper-realism tutorial book. His art is phenomenal. I would love to one day create the type of realism that he achieves. Although I probably need to master patience first 😳😆.

We are getting there......slowly.

Just bought another light for my drawing desk so hopefully I will be able to draw more in the evenings now.

Just so you don't get too confident in your abilities, along comes a piece that's an epic failure lol. It appears that snakes are not my forte. Everything I could possibly get wrong, I did. It's surprising it didn't turn out worse. Oh well, practice makes perfect. I know what NOT to do next time.
