New exercise✍️ Practice the division in blocks

Hi everyone!

I know most of you are here to learn and that's why instructive content is my favorite one✨ Today I want to encourage you to try this new exercise, which is one I use on my students so they get used to block division and undertanding it better!

The division in blocks can be super helpful for the previous sketch stage, to reduce your reference to simple shapes and get the right proportions better and easier. This can be a bit difficult the first...

Would I be able to do it? Who knows😬 I’ll keep ...

Monthly video: Sensibilities and textures in drawing - Animal fur practice

Hi everyone!

Here's this month's instructive video, finally🎉 Thanks for the patience!

It's also a real time process video👀

All these tips can be used for other type of references in movement, human bodies included🌟

You can find the references I used for the drawings o...

First art market experience🌸✨

Hi everyone!

So yesterday was the art fair in Barcelona! I spent all day there with my friend Lúa, it was great! I though the day would pass slower but as I didn’t stop ans I talked with many people the day passed quickly✨

I really liked it! I was so anxious before it started but then I realized it’s a chill experience. The table was pretty small and I had to rearrange some things, but nothing that couldn’t be fixed!

I feel like my head is going to🤯 from these pa...

Flower studies in colored pencils🌸

Hi guys!

While editing the monthly video I decided to start sketching my first flowers, as I want to start practicing different sensibilities and mediums to maybe add them on portraits🌻

I love flowers so much and I feel like I need to practice to get good results. I don’t like to draw repetitive things and flower petals aren’t the best thing for that, I think. But I will try🤭
