At the beginning of March, I was gifted a basket full of yarn skeins. I crochet as well as draw, so this is perfect. I wanted to commemorate the moment with a little sketch of yarn. I love how the sketch turned out! It's one of my favorites from this month.

I didn't draw it true to any skein of yarn in the basket given me. In fact, I don't think there was any green yarn in the basket. But this drawing was fun because I took something real and reimagined it in a very small way. This style is very me... it's where I'm most confident. It makes me happy because I can also see notes of how far my art has come as I've practiced & also as I've been reading more about art.

Scroll for sketch. This image is actually from a couple weeks back. I'm behind in sharing some of my work.

Lately, I've been practicing drawing from photos I've taken. Drawing my pets is sometimes difficult -- it definitely shows me where I need to do more work. Like here. Definitely need to pay more attention to light and shadow and how they work on cloth items. Also, I was too chicken to even attempt the stripes of her brindling. Pepper is so cute sleeping like that. The pillow is my spouse's & he's her favorite person.

Process of my picnic illustration. It's now available on Redbubble products and as a device wallpaper for my Ko-Fi members. Art is my sole source of personal income -- your support means so very much. Links are in my bio & below.

This is one of my favorite summer-time journal art pieces. It's gloriously "sketchy" as opposed to being overly perfected. It's one of my favorites because it reminds me that it's okay for things not to look perfect. Can you make an estimated guesstimate at what is in the image? Then it's fine. Edits unnecessary.

Ironically, I once shared this on Instagram with a poll asking if followers thought it nice enough to publish as a set of stickers. A single individual responded to the poll option "needs more work" πŸ˜†

It's like 5 years later. I'm using Clip Studio Paint to prep it to go into my Redbubble shop soon. I'm also thinking it might be a fun printable coloring sheet. No perfections. Only squiggles.
