Wendy

I think everyone in the UK is feeling a little like this today.

This is Wendy from Sktchy drawn on an iPad Pro using the Procreate app.

Anika

I love drawing foreshortening and this portrait of Anika from Sktchy is a great example. I drew this on my iPad Pro using the Procreate app and Lisa Bardot’s Texturrific Pastel brushes.

Pattes

This is Pattes from Sktchy drawn on my iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil using the Procreate app.

Joy

This is Joy from Sktchy. I drew her on my iPad Pro using Lisa Bardot’s wonderful Texturrific pastel brushes in the Procreate app. You can watch a short Procreate timelapse video of my drawing process on YouTube here.

Lowkeyvibe

My week-long virtual conference has finished so I have time for drawing again and I’ve started off today with a portrait of Lowkeyvibe from Sktchy. I drew this portrait on my iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil using the Procreate app and the ballpointy brush by Georg.

Liza

This is Liza from Sktchy drawn on my iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil using the Procreate app. It probably won’t surprise you to learn that it was the colours in the inspiration photo for this portrait that drew me to this image – that red hair contrasted against a turquoise wall was irresistible.

Bojoura

This is Bojoura from Sktchy drawn on my iPad Pro using the Procreate app. I’ve uploaded a Procreate timelapse video of my drawing process to YouTube here.

Kasra

This is Kasra from Sktchy, drawn on my iPad Pro using the Procreate app. Most of my drawing this week has been done sat in my armchair in front of the TV consuming US election news 24/7 (although I’m British). I feel like I’ve been drawing while watching CNN for a lifetime, has it really only been 4 days?

Ahmet

This is Ahmet from Sktchy drawn in Procreate on my iPad Pro. More drawing while glued to the US election results on CNN…

Zoe

This is Zoe from Sktchy drawn in Procreate. Today is the Day of the Dead or Dia de Los Muertos to give its Hispanic name. I’ve always been attracted to the colourful sugar skulls that are traditional symbols of this Mexican festival but I also love the idea of celebrating the lives of deceased relatives so the festival resonates with me on a number of levels.

I draw a portrait of someone in sugar skull costume and make up most years but this year I’ve also been crocheting along with a Day of the Dead crochet-along (or CAL) created by @theguywiththehook. You can see my finished mandala below and you can find the pattern on Ravelry.
