@Valérie Van Kraaij thanks! It’s all just from imagination. I think it’s good to mix things up between drawing from reference and from imagination. Batch 4 attached

@Gina DeMarco yeah, I think I’ll try some different colour pens and paper tints next time to see what other combinations work.
Wavy hair texture tutorial
A friend of mine asked me to record a tutorial for wavy hair texture when using charcoal. She found it quite helpful, so I thought I would post it here in case anyone wants some tips or is curious.

Thanks Gina! Great to see your process. And I didn’t even know electric erasers existed!
Help Each Other by Engaging on Instagram
Hi there! 😊 As an artist with a small Instagram account, I’ve found it really lovely to have a group of supportive and engaging followers. I’ve even noticed that strangers, mostly other artists, sometimes cheer louder than friends and family 🤪 Personally, my goal right now isn’t to grow a huge following (my profile has actually been private for a while), but I do really enjoy meaningful engagement and supporting others as well 😊 That’s why I’d love to invite you to drop your Instagram (name or link) below so we can follow each other, engage, and support one another 😊🙌 Mine is https://www.instagram.com/lizaglorius.art?igsh=MW5qZWk4eG1xNDlxNA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr

Challenge! Show Up & Create
Most artists don’t fail because of talent. They disappear. So let’s fix that. New challenge: Show Up & Create → 3x per week→ for 30 days→ post whatever you made (finished or messy) Rules: - No perfection - No overthinking - Just proof you showed up - Miss a day? Don’t quit. Just continue. This is about becoming someone who creates. Not someone who waits. I’m in too. Who’s joining?

I’ve been quiet on here for a while but I promise I’ve been keeping up the sketching in spare moments. Here are over 100 heads to prove it! The last image is a charcoal and oil work in progress where I’ve scaled up the invented heads concept on gessoboard. I plan to add some highlights and turquoise accents this week.

@Kathryn Smith thanks! I haven’t dived into any specific content on this topic but from a quick review of what’s out there, I think it’s worth checking out these people/channels on YouTube: Stephen Bauman, Andrew Tischler and Proko. Good luck!
