Drawing perspective on Procreate // timelapse + tips ๐ŸŒฟ

Hello guys! ๐ŸŒˆ

These past few days I kept playing around with my new printer and learned more printing stuff, experimented a bit with the shrink film -I'll share with you that on another post!- and painted a little bit for my next couple of collab posts with Kuretake.

Today though, I decided to do a little digital background study because I want to become better at drawing perspective and I keep pushing it for later.

The one I got is the Epson Ecotank L805, for anyone curious and it's an A4 inkjet photo printer!

I mostly wanted it to make high quality prints of my work and al...

Ponyo gouache study // preview ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŸ

Hey guys! Happy Mondayyyyy! ๐ŸŒˆ

The people at Etchr Lab were nice enough to send me one of their sketchbooks to try out some weeks ago, so yesterday I decided to grab my jelly gouache and do a new Ghibli study using it!

It was scary at first because the sketchbook is size A4, landscape format and I never painted with only gouache on such a big canvas but it was fun! I recorded the whole thing *yay!* so I'll be back with the proces...

Hello my dear patrons ๐Ÿ’–

Hope you're having a fantastic Saturday!

I'm sorry it's been a bit quiet around here this past week, I was working on a couple of Star Wars illustrations for a new project and I'm finally done with that :D 

I really wanted to draw on my sketchbook last night but while looking for refs I came across a wonderful photo and I had this sudden urge of doing a quick digital study of it !

Hi guys! โค๏ธ

It feels so good to be back with art that I actually like D: I've been drawing a lot lately but I wasn't really feeling any of the stuff I was creating. I don't know what's going on with me lol I've never feel this disconnected from my art in years and it's a bit scary.

Anyways, yesterday I took the day to work *PATIENTLY* on something new, and I say patiently because I have this horrible bad habit of being always i...

Hello my dear patrons! I hope you're doing well!

First of all, thanks so much for all your kind words and your understanding on my previous post, I appreciate it so so much. 

This past week was rough, as I was constantly trying to find some creative energy when my mind was clearly in other places, which led to a couple of bad drawing days and a bit of frustration as well. But I think I'm doing better now! I fe...

Sketchbook pages + life update ๐ŸŒฟ

Hi guys! How are you? Hope you're doing well!

I don't have a lot of new exciting art to share, but I've been drawing a lot in my sketchbook lately :D 

I finally started using a sketchbook that was sent to me by Artgecko some months ago and I'm very happy with it! I think I've mentioned it before, but I love their marker paper because it doesn't bleed through and it's perfect for Posca markers especially.

I'm back to share with you some new art I did recently ๐ŸŒป a few days ago I received a package form Kuretake with some new art supplies to try out, they asked me to make a couple of posts on my IG using them.

Pose studies // look inside my sketchbook

Hi guys!

A couple of days ago I did a "live drawing" session to warm up a bit because I've been not very creative with poses lately, I used this video from New Masters Academy. Notice how rigid the first pose is and how much more movement has the last one, these exercises are pure gold to learn anatomy and understanding the human body structures and shapes, I should tak...

Yesterday I finished a new illustration, I wanted to paint something entirely with the Himi gouache at first but then I was a bit coward lol so decided to do my usual watercolor-alcohol markers-gouache technique, and I'm actually glad I did because otherwise not sure if it'd have been successful, I still have a lot to learn from gouache!
