Nact

Keeping it simple today with a portrait in Procreate of Nact from Sktchy.

Say

Back to my 4 colour Bics for this portrait of Say from Sktchy today.

Tony

This is Tony from Sktchy. I love the shadows across his face though I wish I had been braver and gone darker with my watercolour.

Mackenzie

This is Mackenzie from Sktchy and this is what I think of as my trademark style – Copic markers and coloured pencils ina Midori cotton sketchbook.

Trinity

I’m close to completing my “Screen Queens” sketchbook for The Sketchbook Project 2021 now. Today I drew Trinity from The Matrix, one of the most kick-ass screen icons from one of my all time favourite movies. I’ve seen Carrie-Anne Moss in many wonderful roles since but to me she will always be Trinity first and foremost.

Laure

This Laure from Sktchy drawn on my iPad Pro using the Procreate app.

Goldipants

This is Goldipants from Sktchy and she has such a fabulous face to draw. Sometimes I make the wrong choice of medium for a portrait but this time I think I made the perfect choice – I love how this portrait turned out with ballpoint pens. I don’t think I could have done a better job with any other medium.

Jon

Straightforward watercolours and coloured pencils for this portrait of Jon from Sktchy today.

Seo Bi

I’m getting close to finishing my little sketchbook for The Sketchbook Project now. Today’s screen queen portrait is of SeoBi (played by the amazing Bae Doo-na) from the Korean zombie series Kingdom. Of course I’m including her because she’s awesome but also in the hope that those of you who aren’t familiar with Korean film and TV will go check it out. My daughter got me totally hooked on it and if it’s got Bae Doo-na in it it’s probably worth watching (she appeared Korean director and Oscar winner Bong Joon-Ho’s debut film The Host).

Dylan

I’ve spent most of the last 2 weeks on a hospital course which is the second stage (after assessment) of a clinical pathway for getting a spinal cord stimulator for neuropathic pain. It’s been a punishing 2 weeks and I’m physically and emotionally drained, so sitting down to draw Dylan from Sktchy this morning was the perfect way to decompress.

This was my first drawing in a new larger Midori Cotton sketchbook. I’ve never used the A4 size before (Iusually work in the smaller A5 size) but it felt good to have so much more space to work with.
