Molly

I really struggled with this portrait of Molly from the Museum by Sktchy app. I couldn’t get the hair to work and made a bit of a mess of it. Still, it’s all learning!

Jenell

I bought some awesome new Procreate brushes made by Lisa Glanz (her Dreamland pack) and used them to create this portrait of Jenell from the Museum by Sktchy app.

Elle

Elle from the Museum by Sktchy app.

Henri

I’m working away from home this week and I had a long train journey today. So I drew Henri on the (very crowded) train.

Drew

This is Drew from the Museum by Sktchy app drawn on my iPad Pro using the Procreate app.

Scott

This is Scott from the Museum by Sktchy app, drawn in around 45 minutes in my Drawing Faces class yesterday. It’s the first time I’ve ever managed to complete a portrait during class!

Apo

I’ve been hatching this portrait of Apo slowly while dealing with a migraine. I have chronic migraine and have headaches which last for several days, and hatching with a ballpoint is the only drawing that is manageable. So glad that this is still possible though.

I recommend ballpoint pen drawing to anyone who wants something meditative and creative to do – once you’ve drawn the outline all you need to do is hatch!

Brittany

I had a lot of fun adding the reflected greens and yellows to this portrait of Brittany. I experimented with adding Irotijen coloured pencils over the Bic hatching to soften it a little and I’m really happy with how it turned out.

Troix

I drew this portrait on my iPad Pro using the Procreate app and brushes that I’ve had in my Procreate brush library for a while but have never used. It was fun to experiment with new brushes and see what I could do with them.

Taran

This is Taran from the Museum by Sktchy app, painted with watercolour and finished off with coloured pencils. I really enjoyed drawing and painting that fabric but I’ve had enough of trying to work with the paper in this new Moleskine watercolour sketchbook.

I’ve been very happy with them in the past but the paper in this one is different. The paint is drying differently, it’s not layering well, and it’s not responding well to multiple layers as it has in the past. So I’m going to abandon it (something I almost never do) and move on to a new sketchbook.
