Sketches and Small paintings

Hi peeps, 

How are you all?

Sorry for my silence lately, I was busy packaging orders for a while, and then I fell quite ill last week, and just as I thought I was getting better, I got food poisoning, and have been in bed for a couple of days. I'm still not super alive, but at least I can start doing small thing again. 

I was hoping to get a whole lot done this week, but I think I might have to settle for a little less. Oh well. It happens. 

I managed a couple of sketches last week, and it felt really good to open up my sketchbook and doodle again! The drawings were very loose, and I experimented with watercolour pencils, and used water instead of erasing, which was really interesting. I want to spend some time working in my sketchbook the next few weeks, as it is less pressure than doing big paintings, and I want to reconnect with my style and what I want from my work, as we enter this new year. I'll share my tribulations with you all, of course. :)





I also did a few head paintings, a vague attempt at trying Ahmed Aldoori's 50 heads challenge, which was quickly derailed by my being ill, 

I made a video of these on my channel, you can watch it here if you'd like :

I was also thinking of putting together a couple of real-time videos of these for your eyes only, would you be interested?

Let me know :)


Anyway, that's all I have the strength to type right now, but I didn't want to leave you in the dark for too long.
I will be back in a couple of days with an update, a summary of the physical rewards those of you who get those will receive soon, as well as miscellaneous info on how the next few weeks will go.
In the meantime, thank you for being as wonderful as always,
I will be replying to your messages asap, promise. 

All my love,
M

Thank you Jeske! Glad you like the sketches, and I love hearing that you got the tick to paint portraits again! Well done on doing the 100 heads challenge, that is amazing, and quite the undertaking! Thanks for your kind words, I hope you are well yourself, take care!

Thanks Sasha! I hope you are well yourself :) Take care!

Thanks Virginia! Well done on doing the 100 heads challenge, that’s quite the exercise! I am on the mends slowly, thank you. Take care and have wonderful holidays!

The first sketch is absolutely amazing! The other ones are very interesting as well, you did a great job on those. I watched the video of your Head's challenge as soon as it got up and let's say this: I actually felt like trying to paint portraits again for the first time since I completed Ahmed's 100 heads challenge. I finished the 100 heads at my own speed and was so happy I finally drew the 100th face. It's the most exhausting I've ever done and I'm still recovering from it, haha! Real time videos would be interesting to see. Now take care of yourself and take the rest you need. I wish you a good recovery! 🥰

Your sketches are brilliant! I love the one with the raven. Love your portraits from Ahmed’s challenge too! I might try it myself one day. That sucks that you’re sick, and food poisoning on top of that is so awful! Take your time and rest up 💜💜

These sketches are GREAT Myriam, as well as your Ahmed’s head paintings, I did his 100 heads pencil drawings at beginning of the year, actually finished it at my pace, wish I could get back to drawing as well. I hope you’re feeling much better now. Take care of yourself first before work💕
