Early Look: Mermaid Sketches 🌼 + what I’m up to this week! ✨ (Patreon)

Hello everyone & happy Monday! 🥰 I hope you all had a restful weekend 💌

Last night I stayed up really late sketching because I felt inspired to practice drawing some mermaid poses 😌🌙 and I decided to screen-record the full coloring & rendering process for a real-time process video for you guys! 🥳✨You’ll get to see how I play with the color palettes, build up the values & colors, and add my finishing touches 💌 Since it’s screen-recorded you’ll get to see my full screen while I work which includes all my layers, brushes, and more to help you understand the process better! ✨We’ll start editing the video this week and hopefully post it this week too 🥰 stay tuned! 💛

In other news, this week I’m also going to start working on a step-by-step tutorial about upper body anatomy with a mermaid theme! ✨I’m gonna keep most of the details a surprise but I’m excited to get started ☺️💛

The other thing on my to-do list this week is to start filming this month’s studio vlog! 🎞 I like to take you guys with me on a fun little adventure in each vlog and this month I’m thinking of going to the science museum to draw studies of plants and fish 🍃 I wanted to go there last month, but the museum was sooo crowded so we decided to go to the art museum instead and draw there🙈 fingers crossed it won’t be as crowded this time and I’ll get to draw some fish! ✨

Anywho, it’s a very busy to-do list this week!! I’ll keep you guys updated 💛 I hope you all have a beautiful day and a fresh start to the week! ✨

Love,

Lydia 💌
