Aly

You can’t beat a couple of hours of meditative ballpoint pen drawing for finding your zen on the weekend. This portrait of Aly was such a relaxing draw!

Svet

I love to draw faces with a lot of reflected light on them so this portrait of Svet from the Museum by Sktchy was a lot of fun for me. There’s nothing I enjoy more than building that shadow and light, layer by layer.

Richard

Quick portrait of Richard from Sktchy with watercolour and coloured pencils.

Wendy

When you draw muses from the Museum by Sktchy app for a long time you inevitably develop favourites. Wendy is an absolute favourite of mine. I love drawing her. She has the best eyes and such an expressive face, and all her photos are well-lit and interesting. They are everything I look for when I’m looking for a great image to draw from.

Katoka

Sometimes simplest is best. I loved the angle of the inspiration image for this portrait of Katoka from the Museum by Sktchy app but I kept my drawing and painting as simple as possible because i was concerned that if I made the portrait at all complicated it might be difficult to read. i think it works well as it is.

Marie

This was a fun draw of Marie from Sktchy in my Sketchbook Skool Spark class yesterday.

Willie

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

Idris

I forgot to post this portrait of Idris when I finished it at the weekend.

Liberty

This is Liberty from the Museum by Sktchy app drawn with a fineliner, Copic markers and coloured pencils.

Eden

I was working on this portrait of Eden from the Museum by Sktchy app during last week’s Sketchbook Skool Drawathon but I’ve only just got around to finishing it. I drew it on my iPad Pro using the Procreate app and the very fabulous True Grit Texture Supply’s Chromagraph brushes.

I’ve posted a short Procreate timelapse video of my drawing process on my YouTube channel. If you’d like to see it you can find it here.
