Drawing is fun, and always challenging. This was a window view from Youtube, in a tutorial by Koosje Koene. I drew along (she is fast :)). The fun thing is: I would never pick this scene myself, but it is all about drawing, shapes etc. and you learn each time. And now it is a drawing in my sketchbook.
I have been working on a nice assignment to draw about 30 animals in watercolour. I made a few examples first to see which style would fit best. And when this was agreed upon I started drawing. I used books and photos as reference for colour and shape. First a drawing in pencil, then watercolour and then pen. A nice challenge! Here you see one of the animals, and also the paper on which I tested and looked for the right colour.
Another page from my sketchbook: the left is a start for some abstract graphic pen drawing, and the right is a portrait of Barbara Pravi using a Derwent pastel pencil in Prussian Blue. I was listening to her songs and decided to make a quick drawing, she is quite photogenic.
This one is from my sketchbook, painting on a very small size with limited colours. I diluted my acrylic paint so I could paint different layers which gives it a bit of a transparant look. I added some detail with coloured pencil. A good exercise!
