Quick & short update of some of the things I've done lately!
I recently got a graphics tablet which so far I am really enjoying. I've used them before so It's not completely new to me, but I feel there are lots of things that I still need to get used to whilst using it! Hopefully once I've been using it for a while I can give it a short review. So far all I've added to the drawings below using the tablet was the harsh outlines.
These two illustrations were ones that I made today. I haven't really sat down and drawn anything properly for while so I felt like a doodle was due. Its quite satisfying to sit in the sun with my headphones on, and scribble down some initial ideas. Even more so when I design something I like enough to further develop it. The two illustrations below look fairly similar but in fact I had a slightly different approach with each of them.

I'm still delving into profiles at the moment. Both of these are obviously of females, but look far more feminine and soft rather than my sometimes dark and sketchy characters. I do enjoy rough pen sketches a lot but theres something about both of these that I quite like. They're so solidly pieced together and smoothed out that they're almost resemble logos, or stickers. I definitely want to get back into drawing animals more. I never used to draw people, but recently that seems to be all I draw!
Thanks for reading/looking at the pictures x
