Sketchbook Update 93 (Patreon)

I'm including a Eugene fashion pic too because I haven't got enough sfw cliffgene to make a separate compiled post but I wanna share haha. Based on these Extremely cunty sewing pattern covers. legg....

The short dressing gowns, and some of the side slits below? WOW. My partner looked at the short dressing gowns and said 'his balls would absolutely be on display' and he's right.

ANYWAY back to sketchbook stuff!
I need one of those light diffuser umbrellas lol, either im blinded by the sun on my paper or drawing in cool shadows.
I've been really been enjoying oil pastels (and neocolours) lately, it's exciting to learn something new! I did get a better set than the student (...?) grade seawhite pastels I had- these are mungyo gallery (I got them for £12!) with a few sennelier in colours I was missing (...more than £12). Sennelier are ridiculously buttery, they don't play very nicely with other pastels which just slip around ontop! The white is invaluable though, its very opaque ontop of colours, unlike my whites from the seawhite and mungyo.
The opposite of a good portable setup, lmao. I do enjoy it, but it's not really possible to go without a bag like I can with my watercolour setup.

We visited kirby grindalythe, because I'd heard that the church had a cool mural, and damn, it sure did! For such a teeny tiny village the church is Fancy. We went in and it was pitch black and we could hear bats grumbling in the beams about the noise- even more so when the automatic lights came on!Also in a field in the village was this creepy shed with horseshoes and two peacocks inside??? Bizarre.
We visited some friends in Bristol, and stayed in an old church belltower! Sadly it was horribly modern inside, but the pigeons came to sleep in the windows at night which was sooo cute. Each room was on a different floor, which was extremely cool but me being incredibly forgetful with my belongings was less fun. Time to go- oh where's my wallet? 4 floors up? I got a right leg workout...

I tried to draw the blossoms above but it really didn't compare to real life, it was so beautiful!

I'm always trying to find new loops to walk near me, and this was kinda fun, I had to walk so far down to get across the stream elsewhere, this bridge was completely fucked. I was disappointed to see no quicksand (yeah I Did walk past the sign and throw a stick into a nearby icky looking pond that sadly was just a pond)

I've finished my sketchbook, onto the next! ( I will boost my friends stickers (fish and fruits, but for others...u can ask and I'll try answer)
If you're interested in how my sketchbooks are put together, I made a post about it here!
Thanks for reading <3!
