The time has come for this obnoxious meme, once again:

One of my favorite months ~ hoping for lots of sun and warmth like last year! Here’s a quick review of how this month went for me:

LECTURES & DEMOS

This patreon is turning more and more into an archive of resources! There’s 11 tutorials by now, plus a bunch of walkthroughs and tips. I’ve decided to also start uploading lectures and live demonstrations I’ve done in the past, so that you guys also get exclusive access to those after they’ve been streamed. I uploaded the Pixelatl demo this month, and soon I’ll also post my recent lecture on monetizing social media for artists (just waiting on the file and captions at the moment)! I figure these will supplement the tutorials and other resources nicely!

TUTORIAL

Last february, I posted a poll with tutorial ideas, and a lot of people said that they’d like to see all of them made. So I’m going through the topics one by one, and I love how varied they are. Next month’s tutorial will be on drawing hands and feet, so if you have any specific suggestions for that one, drop it below! Your ideas are always a great guide when coming up with the tutorial content!


As always, thanks so much for your support! I'll be sending out links to this month's google drive folder today. If you have any feedback or questions, please feel free to share them with me here or e-mail to loishh@gmail.com. Any and all feedback is welcome! I hope you’ll continue to be my patron and enjoy the content coming up next month! ❤

Amazing! As a suggestion maybe hands and feet in different ages (from child to elder). Also maybe hands angles for make them look beautiful or interesting (specially for characters on standing or "boring" poses), and maybe how to draw them for other specific situations?. And for feet, I think they are always difficult but they have "less variations" than hands ...

Re: Hands and feet. I've always been told to try and plant your subject in the setting, so he's not just floating there. If you have any tips on how to handle showing the subject on the ground plane, that would be good. Chris

I still need to learn drawing in perspective (both characters and environments), and shape design in painting. Any type of tutorials related to those would be very helpful.

THE ONLY RELEVANT MEME!!! Lol. Ahh it’s so hard. You’ve been creating such amazing content it’s hard to think about what more you an add. 🙇🏾‍♀️🌸✨

Harold Maduro

Yes, drawing hands it's killing me!

Toni Zibert

Thanks so much for all of your hard work! So appreciative of the resources that you provide for us, especially the tutorials! They’ve helped so much!! 💝

Hi, thank you for all the wonderful resources. I hope for the hands and feet to see how to approach them in different angles, poses, perspectives. :D

2026-09-13 21:00 Thank you for all the awesomeness this month, as well, Lois! Love everything you've shared with us and I'm always so grateful for all your insights and snippets into your work. I can't wait for the hands + feet tutorial coming up next month. <3 I don't have a specific suggestion, but more of a cluster of questions around how to best approach this subject for the first time (i.e. when to focus on gesture, when to dive into anatomy, how to split your practice time between the two, stylization vs realism, and generally any tips on taking away some of the overwhelm from this topic).

Excellent topic!!! I've just bought a hand model which is so not anatomically correct... So this would be a massive help 😁 Love your work and patreon as always 👍

Loish

thanks for the kind words! and for the useful advice, that will be very helpful when making the tutorial :)

Loish

hey rhodora! do you have a message in your inbox with the link? if not, just send me a DM here and I can solve it for you!

Loish

will definitely be tackling that! thanks for the suggestion!

Loish

that's a good one! yes, I will address this in the tutorial!

Loish

excellent tip! I'll make sure to address that!

Lucia ✨ Maolyart

So excited about that hand/feet tutorial! I'm getting better with hands but feet are soooooo hard to do. Thank you so much for everything you do and all the content you make available for us. I can't put into words how much my art has improved since I joined here. You're awesome :)

Loish

thanks for the kind words lucia!

Lorena Pimenta

I'm so excited about your new tutorial loish! Could you share your ideas on sytlized hands/feet? That would be amazing!!! Also, I'm rly enjoying the lectures you are sharing with us, they have been pretty useful for me. You rock loish!!!

Loish

thank you so much! and yes, I'll definitely be addressing that, because it's essential to how I draw :)
