Hi everyone!
You may have noticed that, lately, I have been mentioning being frustrated with my work a few times. This is just one of those things that is on the list of common artist problems, so I am not worried, just worn down by it, and in order to gain some of my confidence back, I have decided to work on more smaller paintings, do less over-thinking (if I can...), and just go with what I ...

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to remind you that you have a 10% off discount code as part of your tier rewards, as I know that I sometimes forget to update it and the info can get lost in the midst of new posts, especially for new patrons, so here is your code, in case you feel like treating yourself. :)
It is valid on everything in my shop, at all times, except during official sales (during which all patrons get the same code). 2019-05-09 17:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post
Hi peeps,
Here is the sketchbook PDF for May!
It includes some sketches I did last month as I didn't use this sketchbook in last month's PDF.
I hope you'll like it!
I'm going to be focusing on doing a few smaller paintings this month, so expect a few WIPs and smaller works soon. I am also working on the 1-year painting and video, so I should have that ready in the current of the month.
Take care everyone!
Hi peeps,
All physical rewards for April are on their way!
Thank you so much everyone for being so amazing and supportive, you are incredible!
I will start uploading May rewards very soon, along with a bunch of other things, so keep your eyes peeled.
I hope you are all well,
Have a wonderful week-end,
M

UPDATE :
Moondust has won!
Thank you so much everyone for helping me with this decision, I loved being able to involve you in this process, and I really appreciate you participating!
A BIG thank you to Ninjura for coming up with such a beautiful and fitting title, I am glad the community also thought your idea wa...

Hi everyone,
Sorry this is so late in the month, I'm juggling a lot of things at the moment, and will be until July, so I'm really sorry if things are a little out of synch!
Here is your Step-by-Step for "Bare" for April!
As always, let me know if you have any questions at all, and if you found this interesting!
If you have any suggestion as to what information I should includ...

Hi lovely people,
I have finally finished this new painting!
It will be the print for me $20+ peeps for April, and I will be sending out all your rewards this week.
However, I need to do one more thing with this one.
I called it "Moonlight" by default up to now, so that I had something to refer to it by, but I am not 100% sure about tha...

Hi peeps,
I recently received a digital drawing tablet from Huion to review on my Youtube channel.
The video will go up this week end, so I have mostly been working on it this week, and I wanted to share my first sketch on it with you!
I really enjoyed working on this hand study today. I spent about 5 hours on this, trying to get used to using a tablet and photoshop to p...

1 YEAR ON PATREON ANNIVERSARY PAINTING AND VIDEO
Hi peeps,
Thank you so much for voting on the painting design, as well as for asking me your questions!
The winning design ended up being this hand (by a really close margin though!) :

So I will be painting this as soon as I can, probably beginning of next month 2019-04-18 13:19:45 +0000 UTC View Post


Hi everyone,
Sorry for the lack of news, this week is being quite intense, and I've mostly been putting my head down to try and get as much work done as possible.
I am still working away on this concept, and trying to finalise the look I want to start painting it in earnest. I am hopi...

Hi peeps,
Here's the Sketchbook PDF for April!
This one is a little different than usual, as I didn't have that many recent sketches to include in the PDF this month, so I decided to scan another sketchbook I am using, but not really sharing much of.
I included a few pages of this sketchbook in previous PDFs, as I've had it on the go for a while, but I never showed most of the pages before.
This is my "no-pressure" sketchbook<...

Hello lovely people,
How is everyone?
I finally finished this piece!
I changed the title to "Bare",as the previous one didn't quite fit well enough in my opinion.
It's a bit strange, but I really like it.
The face being so dark is intentional, and I will have a step-by-step explaining my process soon.
I hope you like it!

Sorry for my silence the last few days, my boyfriend had the week off last week, and although I was initially planning to work as usual, I quickly realised I needed some days to relax too. I didn't fully stop working, but I did take it easy, which was really welcome.
I am back to work now though!
I am working on a few things, and I will have updates as I go, but for now, I wanted to update you on the "Dust" thumbnails I asked your pov on the other week,...

Hi peeps!
I have ordered stickers of Lace Heart, and should be receiving them in April.
That means that, as per usual, all patrons with physical rewards will receive a sticker in their April rewards. The rest of the stickers will then become available on my store.
By the way, I have finally put some things in motion for the enamel pin design and the orig...

Hi everyone,
Those of you who have been around since before summer of 2018 might remember me mentioning this, but a few months ago, a friend filmmaker and cameraman of mine got in touch, and asked if he could do a small film about me.
He wanted to expand his portfolio of personal work, and thought I would make a good subject for a short video.
I enthusiastically agreed, and he came over for a day and filmed me working, interviewed me, and w...

Hi peeps,
Here's my final painting based on the small sketches I did recently.
I titled it "Wanning", with a voluntary play on words and spelling between "Waning" (usually used to refer to the Moon entering a crescent phase, but also to describe a decrease in strength and intensity in general) and "Wanning" (can mean a few things, among which becoming paler, fading, or being melancholic/sad).
I painted this piece only with ...
2019-03-21 14:53:04 +0000 UTC View PostHello lovely people,
I am in the process of sketching out the composition for a big painting, and I would like your opinion on the thumbnails I have done so far.
I have a fairly good idea of the overall composition, but I am still undecided as to, mainly, the position of the two characters' hands.
As you can see below, I drew up a few versions that I like, but I am have trouble choosing, so I was wondering if you could let me...
Hi lovely people,
Here's the Sketchbook PDF for March!
The second slide is of a big concept I want to get done at some point, so I will be working on that sketch again this month, you'll probably get to see the more developed drawing in the next PDF.
I'll have some thumbnails to show you in the next few days also, and might need your help deciding which one to go for, so keep an eye out! :)
I hope you are all well,
Take care,
Hi peeps,
This is just a quick post to let you know that all February postcards rewards ($15 tier) have been sent, and all the print rewards ($20) that include The Collapse painting are also on their way.
Print patrons who asked to not have The Collapse and wait for my next piece, or patrons who didn't get back to me on that point, will have their February rewards sent with their March package,
Hope you're all well!
Take care,

Hi peeps,
Just wanted to write a quick post to say hi and thank you to all the new peeps who joined us recently :).
A warm welcome to Danielle, Dominique, Amelia, Maryam, and Sarah!
I hope you will all have a wonderful time here!
It's always a bit difficult for me to keep track of new patrons and people leaving at the beginning of each month, since numbers fluctuate a lot while payments are declined and then go through, but I'm really, really appreciate ...

Quick note about the video :
The video is not a tutorial.
I was planning on uploading this video to Youtube, but as I was getting more and more stressed about the painting, I turned the camera off after a while, as filming yourself painting is actually quite off putting sometimes.
So I decided to keep the footage Patreon exclusive. The video doesn't include the entiret...
Hi everyone!
I hope you are all doing well?
Here is a small painting I completed yesterday. You may have seen the work in progress scan of it a few days ago.
I titled it "The Collapse", and it has been quite a journey, emotionally, to paint, let me tell you, haha!
This piece, like a lot of my work, has both a positive connotation to it, and a darker meaning at least for me. Depending on my state of mind, I see it as both a break down of...

Hi everyone!
First of all, we had a few new patrons join us lately, and I don't think I welcomed everyone properly, so hello and a very warm welcome to Lundi2friday, Guna, and Abbie!

Hi peeps,

You may have seen my Youtube video last Saturday, that featured the painting below.
I attempted this concept initially as a Valentine to all of you, but didn't manage to finish it in time, so...Happy belated Valentine's day! :)
My bf and I don't really celebrate Valentine, we give each other gifts a lot anyway, but I still wanted to say thank yo...
Hey peeps,
Thought I'd do a little post with the scans of the drawings I completed during my first live life-drawing session in a long while.
Our flat is very close to a wonderful pub that, it turns out, hosts 2h life-drawing sessions every Monday evening, for £10. It is literally a 4 min walk, so I was looking forward to having a go at it.
I'd love to be able to go every week, as, as much as I like being a hermit and not going out...
