Hello & happy Friday everyone! ☺️✏️

Here’s a drawing I’m currently working on that will be my first drawing for Mermay this year! 🥰 I have sooo many concept ideas of different mermaids to draw throughout the month 😍 For this one I wanted to try out a lavender color palette since I rarely use that color in my work, and I also wanted to experiment with a somewhat difficult pose. Fun fact: I actually posed for this drawing and took a picture to use as a reference! 😆🙈 do you ever use yourself as a reference? ✨

This upcoming month I have so many exciting content ideas that I can’t wait to share with you! 💛 It’s going to be a water-themed month and I’m planning on making some fun step-by-step tutorials that will be based on water 🥰 stay tuned!! ✨

There are so many things I want to do next month and I’ll tell you more about it in tomorrow’s little monthly newsletter 💌

Feature Friday: it’s time for another weekend of artist support! 💛 Drop your username in the comments below if you’d like to have your art shared on my Instagram story next Friday ✨ I’ll be sharing art from last Friday’s post tonight!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!! Stay cozy 🌼✨

Love,

Lydia ✏️
