Progress update on my autumn fairy girl. She's very close to being finished now. I just have a bit more work to do on the skin tone of the left arm. Then I can start to get the detail on the wings. I'm thinking of using some iridescent medium on them too, to give them a bit more of a translucent and mystical effect. #art #fantasy #colouredpencils #autumn #fairy #wip #progress #update #love

Feather

Here's a quick photo of my new wip drawing of a feather, done using graphitint, tinted graphite pencils.  I love the effect of the different tones of graphite, and feel that this actually helps to bring the image to life. #art #wildlife #drawing #feather #graphitint #graphite #wip ♡♥♡

Update

I’m working on my character’s background stories today. It seems strange putting so much effort into something that I will mostly be the only one to see… still, it’s better to get it down on paper and to have it all laid out in front of me. #planning #background#research #characterprofiles
I’ve also done some more work on my owl. Trying to take it slowly and not rush and risk ruining it. Loving working in pencil and graphite!!#art #graphite #pencils #owl #dontrush

I'm still working on my crocheted house, it’s going slower than planned, particularly because I burnt my hand on hot oil when making bacon. Still, I'm trying...
