Lately, I’ve been winding down my days with gouache painting, when it’s too dark to do commission work. It’s been such a joy to simply play. I’m keeping it loose, focusing on simple shapes and not expecting too much, just learning to feel comfortable with the brush and medium.

Another play with Copics, ink and pencils. I’m finally team capybara after watching Flow the other night.

I’ve always loved croissants, but drawing one felt impossible! I used pastels for softness and coloured pencils for texture, capturing all the flaky, buttery goodness. It wasn’t easy, but I’m so glad I stuck with it. #art #foodart #sketch #drawing

Trying out new art supplies. This one is made with Copics, ink and pencils. “The tiniest gangster in town” #art #drawing #sketch

I’ve always wanted to draw a croissant but kept putting it off, how do you capture that perfect crispness with a limited palette? My eyes are sore, and I may have given myself a migraine, but I pushed through. Many times, I nearly gave up, but I’m so glad I didn’t. #drawing #art #illustration

A drawing I completed at the end of 2024. For this drawing, I focused on getting the contrast just right, realistic but subtle enough to let the pencil strokes shine through. #drawing #illustration #artwork

Inspired by the joy of sharing a vibrant drink with friends. Featuring a lively mix of sunflowers, zinnias, and billy buttons nestled in a Billson’s Fruit Tangle can, the perfect reminder to embrace happiness and let your personality shine. #artwork #artprint #drawing

Say hello to Dusty the Schnauzer, my first pet portrait commission of the year. The original reference photo wasn’t the best, think couch & indoor lighting. So I decided to give Dusty a little upgrade. The grass was a bit of a challenge, but it was so worth it. #dogportrait #dogdrawing #drawing

A Magpie’s Call is a special piece born from a desire to experiment. Inspired by the moody tones of Art Deco, it’s both nostalgic and bold. The magpie on a vintage phone feels like a messenger from another time, evoking memories through sound. Available as a fine art print. #drawing #birdart
