For some time, I have wanted to draw the human skull as I have seen so many drawn in many different styles. I like to think that my particular style is black and grey realism, and whilst I’m still at the early stages of my drawing career, I like to think that in the tenContinue reading “Human Skull and Rose”

Anakin Skywalker
My latest piece of work is Anakin Skywalker from the 2008 film Star Wars: The Clone Wars. My son has grown up watching episodes I, II, and III of the Star Wars films and was also a huge fan of the animated Clone Wars film which lead to the hugely successful TV series. I wasContinue reading “Anakin Skywalker”
New Tattoo Design
I’ve just finished my latest tattoo design, and this time, I thought I would design one for myself. I have a gap on my left forearm which needs filling. The last tattoo that I had was on my lower left arm and goes from the wrist to the inside crease of the elbow. This particularContinue reading “New Tattoo Design”
Hands
When I was younger, I liked to draw hands, but it was always my left hand that I drew. This time around, I decided that I wanted to draw someone else’s hands, so that I could draw them together, catching them from a different angle and working in shade and light. I wanted to drawContinue reading “Hands”
New Project
Since getting back into drawing, I always like to ensure that I have a drawing project on the go. I generally have a busy day working my day job for a university library, and in the evenings, I’m carrying out genealogy research for clients for my business, as well as studying for my undergraduate degree.Continue reading “New Project”
Yoda
Having already completed a Stormtrooper helmet, I wanted to attempt another character from Star Wars. As my husband is a huge fan, I decided to let him choose who and what I would draw next, and he chose Yoda. We looked at a couple of images and he went with one where Yoda was lookingContinue reading “Yoda”
Tattoo Design
After a couple of people suggested that I could be a tattoo artist from seeing my drawings, and because this is something that I am unable to do due to having uncontrolled epilepsy, I decided that I would start designing tattoos instead. Since I had just completed a rose drawing, and I have a coupleContinue reading “Tattoo Design”
New Art Equipment
As I am still relatively new to drawing, (I began about five weeks ago), I still need to build up my drawing materials and sketch books. I bought myself a Derwent Precision mechanical HB pencil a week or so ago to see what it’s like to sketch with. I really enjoy the grip compared toContinue reading “New Art Equipment”
New Project
As soon as I complete a project, I like to try and start a new one straight away, and by being able to draw in the evenings, it helps me to wind down and relax before I go to bed. At the moment, I’m working from home due to the coronavirus, so I’m in myContinue reading “New Project”
Rose
Roses have always been my favourite flower; I like them so much that I have two large tattoos on my left arm: The above tattoo took about six hours and was completed in one day with a few breaks. My next rose tattoo I had done in February 2019: This tattoo took slightly longer andContinue reading “Rose”
