I’ve always been fascinated by the human anatomy, and to coincide with my passion for drawing, I decided to draw the human heart. I carefully researched different images of the heart and then settled on an image that I wanted to draw. The next step was to sketch the image, which I did by usingContinue reading “Anatomical Human Heart”

Human Skull and Rose
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”
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”
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”
Self-portrait
I used to love drawing portraits when I was younger and I was always drawing portraits of my favourite popstars when I was a teenager. Now that I have got back into drawing, I decided that I would have another attempt at a portrait, but as it was my first time after so many yearsContinue reading “Self-portrait”
Drawing Animals
I am such a huge animal lover, and my favourite is the pig. Pigs are one of the most intelligent animals after chimps, dolphins and elephants; they’re more intelligent than dogs. They’re quick at learning new tasks, as well as being a very social animal and they have excellent long-term memories. Newborn piglets can recogniseContinue reading “Drawing Animals”
Spiderman
After feeling happy and confident from my last piece of work, I decided that it was time to tackle something more challenging. I couldn’t decide what I wanted to do, or what the subject matter should be. In the end, I decided on Spiderman as he was one of my favourite characters when I wasContinue reading “Spiderman”
