There is something so fun about swatching, its by favorite part of moving in to a new sketchbook. I love that you have a no-show sketchbook too!

I don't know why I'm so obsessed with this piece of corn, but I am!

Are you kidding me?! These are amazing! I can't wait to see what you continue to produce.

These turned out fantastic!

A picture of waffles smothered in chocolate and topped with almonds, coconut, cherries and blueberries. Drawn in colored pencil with an alcohol maker base.

I've hit my dessert phase. Again with alcohol markers and colored pencils.

Love to see the Brochet!

Smart!

This is a mood.

Pastry loaded with different fruits and flours compared to similar piece on the right hand side that was done with cheap colored pencils in 2023

I'm fooling around with alcohol markers underneath my colored pencils. The end result is on the left (alcohol markers and Prisma Premiers). Compared to a piece using the same reference in 2023 with Crayola's.

Wait, this makes so much more sense to me than it should have. I guess I'm so used to feeling like crap, I don't notice the wear and tear drawing has on me.

Check them out! I love everything about this!

It just stuns me what people can do with a simple piece of wire and a stone!

All I can say is...WOW!

Still one of my favorite colored pencil pieces!

Ah! Nothing like new art supplies to inspire you!

I've found that the beauty blender make up sponges work great for dark areas as well. You can buy them pretty cheap.

This is absolutely stunning!

Graphite picture of a black and white dog

Still working on trying to get better at pet portraits. Here is my Sister-in-law's wonderful dog. Was so much fun to draw!

This is adorable! I just want to cuddle with the birbs! Well done Xiphosuras.

This is really cool!

What is that little paint palette? It's adorable!

This is amazing and I'm absolutely in love! Wish my sketchbook had more stuff like this in it

vanilla cupcake with pink icing, colorful confetti and a cherry on top done in colored pencils

A blue and purple flower, slowly opening to a blossom done in colored pencils

A yellow and black butterfly landing on a yellow and peachy orange flower done in colored pencils

Close up of a fancy acoustic guitar in colored pencils

A throw back to when I first started working with colored pencils and bring a little variety into my art, as opposed to always living in grayscale...

I find it absolutely amazing what people can do with a simple pencil.

This is stunning!

This is an amazing piece!

Mandalorian and Grogu from the Star Wars universe done in graphite.

It's been a hot minute since I posted, but I did managed to get the Mando picture finished! Better late than never, right?

You found a hidden treasure! I would love to have my old art!

Pieces like this are why I want to ditch pencil and ink and only work with colour in my sketchbook!
