Do you guys know those days when you just can't get a drawing right?:D This took me a few attempts and practically all day haha 

But I think I can move on now, there comes a point when you just need to actually finish some work lol! I do like how the hair turned out though^^  

Daisyyy!!! the second sticker?

I had way to much fun drawing her haha:D

What do you think? Would you like to see her as a sticker in this months parcel?^^<3

The post cards and mini prints arrived!^^

Its pretty bright out so the photos are too but I'll be taking so more once all rewards are finished! 

The mini prints are so cute omg I'm super excited for them!! Everyone will be getting all three designs hehe:3

Soooo I wanted to add some extra stickers, the Thumbelina I drew earlier this month and maybe someone else? Do you have any requests for the second sticker? I was thinking of maybe drawing a Daisy Mae since her colors would fit the theme and she's just really cute? ...

Ready for mermay??

Oh you guys I'm so excited for May this year you have no idea!!! I've been thinking a lot about the way I could do Mermay this year and wanted to do a test illustration^^ 

And I'm really happy with her!! I'm not sure if I'll be using the Pantone color swatch in every illustration but it would be a fun idea:) 

What do you guys think?<3

Esmeralda <3 vs ref

I finally was able to work on this drawing which is a collaboration with Faeika_ where we both  made moodboards for each other and the one I got was just perfect to draw our girl again!^^

Its very handy to keep reference images like the one of Kylie in your Instagram saved tab, I have a whole folder of ig posts with interesting poses! It can be a good source for fresh poses that are not on Pinterest yet!:3

Pina Colada girl:D

I filmed the Procreate workflow and brush video today while drawing this girl diving out of her favorite cocktail haha! I just thought it would be a fin idea idk:D

I originally drew her to fit the summery fruity theme of this month so she could be the post card to go with the sheets, I'm not 100% sure tho, do you guys like her? 

It could be either her or any of the other drawings I've made (maybe the watermelon girl?), I've also thought of maybe doing two prints to celebrate ...

I made the sheets!!^^ (and more!)

I went and made the summer fruit sheet with my silhouette!:3 Its my first time making kiss cut sheets like these but they turned out perfectly (on the third try haha)

I also made an extra sticker to go with the summer theme and to be added which is a name tag style sticker for your sketchbooks hehe^^ 

the sheet?:3

I've been drawing fruits all day haha and now put together this sheet, what do you think?

They are not really different from my usual sheets haha but those just are the kinds of stickers I use in my planner:DD

Do you guys like the sheet? I was thinking of adding some more princess stickers next to Thumbelina to add as well as a summery print with the same aesthetics!:)

And welcome to Josie!!^^Thank you for pledging, we are super happy to have you here!

Watermelon girl +speedpaint

Hehe you ask and I shall deliver^^ Next up will be some single fruits and then I'll start setting up the sheet to see what's missing:) 

Quick fruity girl

I had some time before bed so I drew this summer babe for you^^ As requested its a ginger girl with freckles and round glasses:)

Not 100% sure if she'll be in the set since I drew her pretty quickly but what do you think?

I'll take all day tomorrow to work on the sheet since I haven't really had free time to do that in the past few days! So there will be fruits and girls coming in all day hehe and hopefully I can nail down the look and the stickers I want to have in the end!

#meettheartist

I've worked on a new #meettheartist video today which meant I had to draw myself again haha:D 

You guys get the final version as well as the speed paint<3

I'm still struggling with drawing myself as well as cats but I really wanted to make Mila look as posh as possible:D And also needed something to upload (and already had the voiceover part finished)

I'm always fighting myself when it comes to uploading because I'm scared the video is too boring aaah but I just gott...

MERMAY!!!

Mermay last year was one of the most fun challenges I've done in a long time!! As well as Inktober which I did with Vetvy, so I'm doing mermay with Vetvy this year!:D

And you get the list first in case you want to work ahead a little or already start sketching^^

The whole theme is going to be Pantone colors! So similar to huevember but different:D You are free to draw whatever you'd like as long as the illustration primarily features the color of the day!

I haven't started a...

The first sticker?^^

What do you guys think about her? I've been slowly getting more used to Procreate and now really want to draw all stickers for this sheet on my iPad!^^

Like you suggested, I also want to film this months video about Procreate and how I use it and would love to hear any questions you'd like me to answer in the video:)

I'm showing my workflow and which brushes I use but if there's anything else you're curious about just ket me know<3 (even if its just a random question that you w...

Parcels are on the way! +April stickers?

I dropped them off earlier today so they went out already^^ 

Welcome to Tiffany btw! Thank you for joining our smol fam!<3

Soooo for April I was thinking of finishing all the bigger HP stickers to add to the charms, I am worried if I will be able to send them though because of the virus so I want to also work on something else in case we have to move the charms to the next month! 

What kind of other theme would be fun? I'd love to make some planner style sticker...

Thumbelina!! +speedpaint

Hehe you asked and I deliver!^^ I did some image searching for drawing a modern Thumbelina and then saw the prompt "unite" for #quarantober so I drew these cuties!<3
More Thumbelina and other non-disney princess art following soon!

Also: thank you all so much, the pledges have gone through and I'm printing the shipping labels right now so they go out today<3 I can't really say how long the letters will take but I'm so excited to send them out!^^

Dazzle+Rest speed paint

I wasn't even planning on continuing with the prompts that religiously but then this idea came to me and I wanted to draw it^^ 

I've packed all the parcels for you guys already and am just waiting until I can ship them, probably on the second or so:) 

For anyone wondering about postage: Parcels aren't shippable anymore but letters are! So I'm really glad I tried that way of sending last month so I know that it will work! These are difficult times especially for small bus...

Anastasia WIP

Haha yes I'm drawing her again in that pajama outfit that I love so much:DD I've added a picture for context for anyone who doesn't remember!<3

I kinda want to make another background video or some sort of a challenge involving background practice but I'm not 100% sure yet how that will go:D 

modern Anastasia (finally!!)

I finally rewatched Anastasia after having her on my list for so long!! Thank you Irini for being so patient! T_T 

I fell in love with that movie so much omg! The romance is actually interesting for once haha and Anastasia is just really cool:D

I had such a hard time deciding which outfit to draw so I opted for the go to ( but I also have her pyjama in the works hehe because that's my fav!)

'Bottle' coloring page

I'm currently working on the next quarantober prompt and thought this would make a fun coloring page^^ 

Its inspired by an old illustration from 2018s Inktober:)

I'm starting to pack up your parcels today and wanted to ask: Do you have any wishes for content for the next few days? What do you want next months video to be about? Do you want to see more speed paints or step by steps or what kind of art do you want to see? 

I really should work on some more sketchbook...

Fly

This was so much fun to draw!^^ 

I've added the speed paint as an attachment because that's easier and this way everything can be in one post:)

Wet speed paint

Watch me struggle haha:D

Wet

Not 100% sure about this one hahah I struggled quite a bit! I'll upload the speed paint right after this so you can see how much I changed things up and tried again! :D

Oh I forgot to add! This is a DTIYS by @hailjune!!<3

The charms are here!<33

And they turned out super pretty!^^
I plan on adding one into each Patreon parcel for next one which will be Harry Potter themed!<3 

And before I add the charms into my Etsy shop I want you guys to be able to claim your desired house^^ Please comment which charm you want down below so I can set them aside for you<3

burst

My first thought was bursting out in laughter but I wasn't able to pull it off perfectly haha:D I'm also still not 100% sure about her face but at least I've gotten more used to Procreate already yay^^

'Bloom' - getting more used to Procreate^^

The quest continues! When I saw the Quaran-tober promptlist I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to practice drawing on the iPad!:) 

I'm going to do all of these prompts in Procreate to have some me time but also get better at using it!!

I've been enjoying experimenting with style and looseness as well as watercolor textures which is super fun and forces me to be creative and leave my comfort zone a little!

I also want to include the references I used in case t...

dtiys fun

Today has been a low motivation day so I decided to allow myself to do some fun art and drew a dtiys challenge again after a looong while^^

I gave her an attitude haha, how are you guys holding up?<3

Patreon discount code!<3

To say thank you I've made a discount code for my Etsy shop that will give you guys 15% off!:3 

The code is:  PATREON15

I've added some new products but have also gotten a message that the charms are already in German customs so they will arrive soon and I want you to be able to get a discount on them as well!^^

I'm thinking about adding one of the charms in each Patreon parcel for April and also maybe making some HP stickers and a print? Would you like that/ would...

The sheets are here!!!

Its kinda dark already and I'll take better pics tomorrow but holy moly they look so beautiful!!^^ I'm so excited!! 

idk, what do you think about this?

Some art I made for a collaboration and video that will be posted soon!

I'm not really sure about it since this is so far out of my pastel comfort zone!:D The plan is to sleep on it and look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow! What do you think?

Also: the prints arrived!! And the sheets are already on their way! I'll let you know as soon as I have everything here^^

Suuuper quick Procreate doodle

I‘m still struggling with Procreate as you can see haha but this is the first drawing/ doodle I did!

My bf gave me his old IPad for trying it out and it’s like learning to draw all over again!:D

I really want to get a shaggy hair cut like this one in the future!!!
