Happy #worldbookday 🧡 These are some of the titles on my desk today. I love bringing books from my (growing) collection to the studio, to keep me company while I work on picturebook characters. I’m working on some portfolio pieces now, will share more soon! #artstr #worldbookday #illustration

Daily drawing day 231: visiting the Cambridge MA Children’s Illustration graduate show. Absolutely loved it! I want to do this course so much, just need to find a way around the high fees! #dailyart #artstr #bitcoinartist #proofofwork

Daily drawing day 226: falling down the #bitcoin rabbit hole. The further you go the more there is to learn. #bitcoinart #bitcoinartist #dailyart #proofofwork #illustration

I think I’ll make a zine of drawings from different London places and this one will definitely be a part of it! #sketchbookartist #dailydrawings #art #nostrart #artstr #proofofwork #bitcoinartist

Daily drawing day 216. I enjoyed drawing this so much! And the daily work paid off: I got the balance right. How? I managed to combine water colour with soft pastel in the way that feels natural, I managed to keep the colour palette well toned, and I managed to balance multiple characters and give them expressions that make sense. You might not notice these details but I’m really pleased with the outcome. #dailyart #proofofwork #artstr #craftstr #illustration #handmadeart #bitcoinartist

An afternoon of drawing in under a minute. This was my daily drawing day 210. #artstr #dailyart #proofofwork #illustration #bitcoinartist

Daily drawing day 207: On the joys of being a #nostrich 💜 #artstr #craftstr #artonnostr #illustration #art

Daily drawing day 205: sketching another scene from Ten Thousand Doors of January. Sometimes when I enjoy a book I slow down the reading because I don’t want it to end 😅 #artstr #illustration #sketchbookartist #dailyart #proofofwork

Daily drawing day 200: sketching the winter sunset in my neighbourhood. I will be honest, I missed one day of drawing recently so this should be 201. But I decided to pick it up and carry on rather than start from 1 again. I make the rules after all and the last thing I want is to draw less and feel demotivated because of missing one day. That’s just silly. #winterillustration #illustratorslife #dailydrawings #landscapepaintings #artstr #craftstr #proofofwork

Daily drawing day 138: getting near towards the end of this story. One more image to go. #artstr #craftstr #dailyart #proofofwork
