In other news, I was just accepted into evening classes for artschool for both life drawing and still life, couldn't be more excited for that new chapter 🎉🎉🎉🎉 I don't really have many people around me who care much about art so sharing this into the bluesky void as I celebrate. #artistsonbluesky

It's been a while since my last daily practice post. It's not that I didn't practice daily, but I realized that by trying to keep up with a daily public posting schedule, I kept gravitating towards those things in my practice i felt most comfortable with. #artistsonbluesky #artprogress

Day 119 of sharing my art progress. Heatwave finally winding down, so back to drawing digitally. Super happy with the results today, feels like one of these jumps forward after studying fundamentals for a while. The Asaro heads really paid off! #artistsonbluesky #art #artsky #artprogress

Day 118 of sharing my art progress. A few more #CyberpunkEdgerunners character studies, I just love how unique these characters look despite their otherwise simple facial features. They're so well designed. #art #artistsonbluesky #artprogress #fanart

Day 117 of sharing my art progress. Heatwave is still in full force so I went with something more fun this evening and did some character studies of #lucy from #CyberpunkEdgerunners - maybe I'll find the courage to try a colorized version in gouache this weekend. #art #artistsonbluesky #fanart

Day 116 of sharing my art progress. More sketching in procreate before bedtime, not much else possible with all the heat at the moment. #art #artistsonbluesky #artprogress #artsky

Day 115 of sharing my art progress. Some sketching on the ipad in bed this evening. Also we're moving into another heatwave? I'm so done with summer 😭😭 #art #artistsonbluesky #artsky #artprogress

Day 114 of sharing my art progress. Some late night pencil portrait sketches. #art #artistsonbluesky #artprogress #artsky

Day 113 of sharing my art progress. Finally a calm weekend without plans - so lots of time for practice. Continuing on the Asaro Head studies (hard brushes, no opacity). Getting to below 30 minutes per head is still a challenge. #art #artprogress #artistsonbluesky #artsky

Day 112 of sharing my art progress. Asaro heads seemed like a natural progression after the skull. Tried to limit myself to a hard brush without opacity to really focus on carving out the planes. Probably will do a lot more of these from various angles. #art #artistsonbluesky #artprogress #artsky

Day 111 of sharing my art progress, digital portrait sketching for today! #art #artprogress #artistsonbluesky #learningtodraw

Day 110 of sharing my art progress. Received some gouache for my birthday and hadn't touched real brushes since highschool. I clumsily followed a tutorial by Jess Chung on youtube and felt silly for even attempting this. Now I can't help but smile looking at the result. #artistsonbluesky #art

Day 109 of sharing my art progress. Some sketching outside at a coffee place. Felt good to work analogue again after so many days of digital practice. #art #artprogress #artistsonbluesky #artsky

Day 108 of sharing my drawing practice. Even more timed skull painting & value studies. It's not the most interesting to share but it feels good to spend some time on getting more familiar with these. #art #artprogress #artistsonbluesky #artsky

Day 107 of sharing my drawing practice. More skull studies, this time timed at 10 minutes. I'm working towards 5 minutes ultimately but that feels like a far stretch. #art #artistsonbluesky #artsky #artprogress

Day 106 of sharing my drawing practice. Still working on more skull studies this week. Tried to set a timer for 15 minutes each this time around, will try to go even shorter for 10 minutes tomorrow. #art #artprogress #artistsonbluesky #artsky #learningtodraw

Day 105 of sharing my drawing practice. Moving to painting skulls today which, after coming from fruit and objects felt like a "and now the rest of the owl" situation. I was actually surprised that they turned out decently but they took f o r e v e r ! #artistsonbluesky #art #artprogress #artsky

Day 104 of sharing my drawing practice. Coffee. Simple as that. More studies on painting light and value. #art #artistsonbluesky #artsky #learningtodraw #artprogress

Day 103 of sharing my drawing practice. More digital painting. #art #artistsonbluesky #artsky #artprogress

Day 102 of sharing my drawing practice. When life gives you lemons you... study them? Or something like that. They receive light so differently from solid apples and pears, felt like a huge step up in difficulty. #art #artistsonbluesky #artsky #learningtodraw #artprogress

Day 101 of sharing my drawing practice, back to some digital portraits for today. #art #artistsonbluesky #artsky #learningtodraw #artprogress

Day 100 (yay🎉) of drawing practice. Or is it painting practice now? I thought by day 100 I'd be busy drawing castles and dragons but instead today it's... pears? Having a lot of fun just exploring color with painting at the moment. #art #artistsonbluesky #artsky #artprogress

Day 99 of sharing my art progress, my life has become consumed by apples. Trying to push shapes, value and color a bit more in these studies. #artistsonbluesky #artprogress #artsky #art

Day 98 of sharing my art progress. It's apple time! Digital painting practice, trying to get a feel for value and chroma. #artistsonbluesky #art #artprogress #learningtodraw

Day 97 of sharing my art progress. Back home after a few busy days and felt like going back to alcohol markers for portrait practice this morning. #artistsonbluesky #art #artprogress #artsky

Day 96 of sharing my art progress. Another set of donut shapes to practice shading and understanding the form better. A lot happier with these than the first batch but they're still soooo hard to get right. #art #artprogress #artistsonbluesky #artsky

Day 95 of sharing my art progress. Why is it so hard to draw and render a simple donut shape? I feel like I'm losing my mind with how they all look more like wobbly noodles than a solid shape. #artprogress #art #artistsonbluesky #artsky

Day 94 of sharing my art progress. Apparently we're heading into the next heat wave already? I'm so tired of this summer already and it's barely started. Back to hiding in the bedroom and drawing pencil sketches. #art #artprogress #artistsonbluesky #artsky

Day 93 of sharing my art progress. I just started the Meds Map course by Ahmed Aldoori for digital painting. Today + yesterday has been basic shapes and thinking more about light / shadow. It feels good to have a bit more structure to learning. #artprogress #artistsonbluesky #artsky #art

Finally back home and some relief from the recent heatwave. Cooler temps meant finally being able to get to my drawing tablet again. Did quite a few portrait sketches and really liked how this one turned out! #art #artistsonbluesky #learningtodraw #artprogress
