Hi peeps,
Here's another installment of my Daily Doodle Diary!
I've been less on top of it the last few days, I missed a few days, and was less focused on days I actually did sketch.
The good thing being, that whenever I missed drawing altogether, was usually when I had spent most of the day either drawing or painting. So I forgive myself somewhat...But still...X(
I intend on being more focused this month. I really want to manage a full ...
Hi everyone,
The Process Video for Bloom is finally done!
I am SO SORRY it took me so long to put it together! There were hours of footage to go through, and getting my computer and editing softwares to cooperate was...quite frankly an absolute nightmare. The longer the video I am trying to edit, the more difficult it gets and the more my software crashes...

Hi peeps,
How are you all?
I just finished this week's Youtube video, and as I have to make is accessible to my sponsor for review, I figured you might also enjoy getting early access to it!
I am going to take this opportunity to also show you my latest paintings and my adventures in acrylic paint land. :)

Hey peeps,
Okay, so this post is probably a little late since it’s like...the end of February, but since I still feel like it’s mid-January, here it goes. XD
There’s going to be a bunch happening this year art-wise for me, and I will need your input on a few of those things, so I thought I’d give you a general run-down of my projects and plans for the upcoming months!

Hey peeps,
I put together the February stickers, and you can the designs below.
These are glossy vinyl stickers a little under 4" on their longest side.
I have also prepared March's designs, which are around 3" on their longest side.
You can see those below.

The new underdrawing
Hi everyone,
Those of you who are on Insta or Lens will have seen bits of this already, but here's a big post to show you what's been happening with this painting so far.
This painting will be titled "Slumber", and I want it to have fairly muted tones, and to be lighter at the bottom, and ...

Hey peeps,
Here are the latest drawings I did in my Daily Doodle Diary.
I've been struggling a bit to keep up with it lately, because I have so much to do next to it, so a few days were done very late in the day, which usually means I just want to get it over with and have very little energy to do anything other than doodle.
But that in itself has been a learning opportunity. It has shown me that I actually do enjoy drawing even when I'm drained and...
21-02-20 UPDATE :
I have added everyone on this post to my "close friends" list on insta, so you should now be able to see my personal stories! I post on there more or less everyday!
I will still be posting on Lenses occasionally, for anyone who doesn't have instagram or for whom it is more convenient to stay on patreon. There might be a few less progress shots and such, but I'll have regular updates nonetheless.
And for anyone who doesn't have either insta ...
Hey peeps,
I have finished the underdrawing for my next painting (above).
It is based on the concept sketch I showed you in December (below).
I'm excited to paint this one, partly because I like the concept and have a pretty clear idea of how I want to paint it, but also because I will be using my Liquitex Soft Body Acrylics.&nb...

Here are the long promised Snake Enamel Pin Colour Sketches!
I have put together a few choices for the colour of the pin, and you can vote for your favourite down below.
The outer lines of the designs are a colour that mimics the gold I would like them to be.
I'm not sure when I'll be ordering the pins, as I am currently low on funds after paying my taxes, but things will hopefully start looking up slowly. ...

Hey peeps,
Thought you might enjoy seeing all my daily doodles in my 2020 diary so far!
I'm still missing a few days, but I think I am slowly settling into a routine so I'm hoping to miss fewer and fewer days in the future.
It takes everything I have not to go back and tweak old drawings, haha! And sometimes, I just want to keep going too, and draw on several pages a day...
I'm finding this exercise tremendously useful in dedramatising the process of sittin...

It includes all of my recent sketches, as well as some sketchesI created for clients in Inktober booklets.
I will also share my Daily Doodle Diary pages up to now in a post later this week. :)

Hello lovely peeps,
This is going to be an update post and it includes a bunch of important information regarding my page, tiers and rewards.
Please skim it if you can, or at least read the TL;DR at the end, as this will likely affect you.
Do feel free to ask any questions you have or share any concerns, and I will get back to you asap.

Hello peeps,
Good news! I'm finally back in the UK!
That means I have all my equipment and supplies to start properly working and creating again.
So, first order of business, here is your sketchbook PDF for January!
I made it extra big to make up for the December, and for my silence for the past few weeks.
It contains scans of a lot of my work from 2003 to 2005 (more or less).
It isn't chronologically...
Hello lovely peeps,
How are you all doing?
Happy New Year! Did you guys do anything for your new year? I personally just stayed home with my parents, had nice food and chatted with my boyfriend. Exactly what I needed. I find New Year’s Eve to have always been more stress than anything, so I was to have no plans this year. Plus, I pretty much feel brain dead from 2019, so needed to conserve all the energy I could for the onslaught of 2020.
I don’t typically re...

How are you all?
How did your holidays go?
I hope you are all feeling well and happy!
My christmas was lovely, and seeing my family is wonderful, especially my younger brother who had been away for 2 years travelling.
I have managed to work intermittently, so, as promised, here is a real-time video of one of my little portrait paintings from a few weeks ago.
If you like this one, I have 2 more I can upload in January also!

Thank you for your help! ;)

Hey peeps,
How are you all?
I've really failed at keeping in touch lately, I'm so sorry. I fell ill again last week, as my immune system was shot by having food poisoning while being ill, so the virus came back, which was fun. I think I am finally on the mends though! Which is a good thing considering that I am flying back to France tomorrow for Christmas!
The last few days have been crazy, as I needed to catch up on a ridiculous amount of work, ...

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.

Hi peeps,
Sorry for my silence, doing a lot of things behind the scenes, but unfortunately, a lot of it is admin I need to sort out before I go back to France for Christmas, as well as a few commitments such as sponsored videos and shop orders.
I hope to get some time to draw again (and maybe paint, I really want to try out my new acrylics!) very soon.
In the meantime, here is your November Sketchbook PDF!

Well, I finished it earlier this week, but then I had to spend 2 days working on the calendar, and prints, and booklets, trying to get everything finished, which is why I'm uploading this a little later. :)
I will have a Youtube Video with a tour of all the drawings later today! :)
The last one is one I failed and decided to abandon, instead drawing the cosmonaut man, which is a concept you may remember from a previous Sketchbook...

Hi peeps,
I wasn't sure I was going to be able to put this together in time, but I somehow managed! (I think. We'll see Monday, haha)
I put together a Holiday Sale, that will be going on in my shop until the 26th of November.
As always, I have deactivated your regular patron codes, but you get a special Patron code for an extra 5% off on top of the regular discount, so you basically get 20% off EVERYTHING on my store.
Hey everyone,
It recently came to my attention that your patron discount codes may not have been working on recent items in my shop.
I am so sorry about that, I have now fixed the issue.
If you put an order in recently and weren't able to use the code, let me know, and I'll refund you the amount you should have had deducted from your order.
In case you don't know your codes, you can find them in the posts l...

Hi peeps,
How are you all?
This week started really well, and I was really productive over the week end and on Monday, and I am finalising your late rewards and prepping October and November rewards.
Tuesday was when it all went downhill and now I am stuck in a heavy art block, but I am powering through reasonably well in order to finish up Inktober. I can't wait to use colour again!

Hello lovely people,
How are you all?
I have FINALLY finished the September Painting (gosh).
Here's "Fragment".
Scanning this one and keeping the colours and values faithful to the real painting was incredibly difficult, and I never fully succeeded, but this is the best I could do.
I kept the skin of the character fairly muted so that the colour ...
Hi everyone,
Today was another reasonably productive day! I've been sleeping a lot better this week, which is a massive relief, and I am stretching as often as I can, which has helped with the pain.
I managed to work on "Fragment" for most of the day (below), thanks to the fact I already had today's Inktober drawing sketched out. I am close to being finished with it I think, and once I am, I will be able to send all late rewards before I move on to putting together your Octo...

Hi everyone,
Today was fairly productive, and I managed to do 2 sketches and ink one.
Above is my day 18, "The Knot", and below is my sketch for tomorrow's drawing (hopefully).
Having a sketch done in advance allows me to spend a little more time on other tasks during the day, and for this week, I have a video to edit and a painting to finish, on top of attempting to catch up with Inktober, so I'll take any extra time I can get.
