​Hey there, Artist Friends!

I just arrived from a week in Toronto day-before-yesterday and am getting back into track with my usual work schedule! Yesterday I allowed myself to wake up late after my full day of traveling back to Mexico, and I spent the day mostly catching up on emails and social media (I only had a few minutes of Internet here and there during my trip). 

Today, I was able to set my monthly plan in terms of the content I will be putting out for you both here on my blog and on YouTube! I'm very excited for the posts I have coming up regarding my trip! I will be sharing everything from what art supplies I took along with me, how I stayed creative during my trip, the artsy items I bought during my trip, and also, how I managed to meet some amazingly talented artists!  Stay tuned for that!

Today I'm sharing a watercolor flower painting time-lapse, as well as a few of my most recent sketches. Lately, I've been trying to make time for sketchbook studies and improving my drawing, and I love challenging myself with subjects I find difficult, like hands and the human figure.

I hope you enjoy, and make sure to stay tuned for next Friday's blog post/YouTube video!

Hi Haru!
I just use the supplies in the pictures. Usually I create my sketches with regular Turquoise drawing pencils. I start the sketch with an HB and once proportions are correct, I start in with a softer lead like 4B-6B. :)
Thanks so much for your comment!
