This is Doug from Sktchy drawn on my iPad Pro.
I totally lost the likeness in this portrait of Sveta. I’m also guessing at her name – this is a shortened version of her username on Sktchy, Her actual name is in Cyrillic characters! It looks beautiful but I can’t hope to reproduce it correctly here.

It’s been a while since I’ve used this digital drawing style and I didn’t want to get too out of practice with my method so I used it for today’s portrait of Yuka from Sktchy.
This was fun! Digital drawing can be very liberating because the ability to work in layers makes it so much easier to correct mistakes and experiment with new different approaches and ideas. And I think that often shows in my digital portraits, like this one of Juli which I finished very quickly and deliberately decided not to spend too much time tidying it up because I didn’t to lose that sense of freshness.
This has been a crazy week and I haven’t had time to draw for almost a week, which I think is the longest I’ve gone without drawing in at least five years. But hooray, it’s Saturday, and I have some breathing space and time to sketch.

I decided it was time to another portrait of my daughter Daisy. I was deliberately experimenting with a flatter more illustrative style with this portrait- and working with a colour palette and elements that I know she likes. But I can think when I look at it is that the mouth is not quite right 😂
Keeping it simple today with a portrait in Procreate of Nact from Sktchy.

This is Nazli from Sktchy. I was playing with texture in Procreate for this portrait, using Lisa Bardot’s fabulous Pencil Box brushes.
