July 2020 Illustrations ヽ(• ‿ •)ノ (Patreon)

Poll Winners: Stingray ("Ocean Flap Flap"), Nessie, Tiny Pufferfish, Octopus, Kraken

The Deep Ocean theme is complete! I challenged myself to draw things out of my comfort zone-- ocean water, boats, and a coral reef. Drawing and writing the captions for animals that do not have visible mouths was also difficult and interesting. 

I personally most enjoyed working on the Nessie illustration (the ocean at night and stargazing are both lovely!) We're leveling up our environmental rendering skills, woo!

What was your favorite drawing this month?

In other news, I have a new book out, yaaaay. It's called You're Strong, Smart, and You Got This, and you can find it on Amazon (US) and Book Depository (intl) (though I believe it's out of stock at the moment-- Covid seems to have affected the amount of stock booksellers are taking in, unfortunately) It's a sweet little book with letters to a younger, struggling me as well as lots and lots of encouraging illustrations. If you like seeing my art here, you will most likely enjoy this book, too. :)

Thanks so much for following my art! I look forward to bringing you more colorful encouragement in August. ♥ (Summertime theme incoming!)

Until Next Time,
Kate
