Luna Lovegood ~ This one popped into my head the other day. Just imagining her walking into the great hall with her lion hat. I sketched it out and then did an experiment - painted with watercolor and gouache on yupo paper. Very weird but fun. The paper is actually waterproof so instead of absorbing the paint, the water evaporates and leaves the paint on the surface. Anyone ever tried this before?

Here's a little illustration that popped into my head today. Obviously, it isn't perfect, but I'm happy with the general composition. Still trying to find a way to work on lighting.

Just a couple newer pieces. I actually really like how the reading girl turned out - even though she was just a quick little draw.

I like this post! I was going through your older work. You have some really nice pieces here. I especially like the dark forest and the girl with the necktie. They show a complex and mature palette.
Btw. I like you line "... Oh and I have allergies." Lol
Good luck with your daily sketches, your kids and allergies.

Just a couple more recent pencil sketches. I keep my Instagram updated, but I sometimes forget about my sketchbook here. These are just based on Pinterest photos. I really liked the portrait sketching class and I’ve done a lot of practice pieces since then.

A couple pencil sketches. I loved the class on stylized portraits and this is what I always fall back on when I have only a few minutes to study. I know I need to spend more time doing compositions and whole figures, but there’s something about a pencil portrait that just gets me. Pinterest supplies an endless selection of sweet references so this is what I do when I can’t get to my paints.️
