Late Night Sketching 🌙✨ + what I’ve been up to & Feature Friday! 💌 (Patreon)

Hello everyone & happy Friday! 🥰 I hope you all had a lovely week 💛

Tonight I’ve been doing some loose sketching with a reference that I’ve been wanting to draw for a while ✨ I love the dramatic lighting in the reference and the hand pose, so I’m gonna try to interpret it in my style! 🥰 I may add a magical element to it, we’ll see ✨

But I’m excited because after this drawing I’m going to be drawing a lot of male characters for this month’s tutorial video about how to draw male faces!! 🙈 You guys know I love drawing females, but I’ve been wanting to draw males more often so this tutorial will be the perfect opportunity 😍 This upcoming week will be dedicated to writing notes, planning, and filming for the video ✏️✨

And speaking of videos, I posted the august studio vlog yesterday and it’s available for all Devoted Dragonfly patrons! 🎥✨ In the video I take you guys with me through a few days of my work week, showing you projects I’m working on, decorating the studio space, and I also filmed a bit of my birthday which happened this month! 🥰🎈Make sure to check it out if you haven’t yet! 🥳✨

Feature Friday: Drop your username in the comments if you’d like to have your art shared on my insta story next Friday! I’ll be sharing art from last Friday’s post tonight ✨

In other news, we’ve been on a little vacation since Wednesday this week and it’s been so much fun to relax a little 😌 so that’s why I’ve been a little quieter here!! We’ll be going back home on Sunday 🥰

I hope you guys have an amazing weekend!! Stay safe & cozy 🌼

Love,

Lydia 💌
