Studio Snippets - What I've been drawing (Patreon)

Hello lovelies,

How are you? Has April been a creative month for you so far?

My Aussie Cosy Colouring books are available in the US now, and so I think you might be able to get them shipped internationally from Amazon which is really exciting 🎉

There are three books in the series, here are the links:

Aussie Cozy Nature

Aussie Cozy Baking

Aussie Cozy Homes

They're full of cute drawings of Aussie animals doing cute activities, I think the nature book might be my favourite!

This past month I've been drawing more illustrations for new picture books than I probably ever have! Which is really lovely to have the work, though the side effect is that I don't have as much time to draw in my sketchbook or my iPad so I haven't been able to share much art online.

I can't show exactly what I'm working on for the picture books until they're published, but I've pixellated all of the book spreads that I've finished in the past month so that I can give you a glimpse!

They were already fully sketched and some of them partly coloured so I didn't start them from scratch this month, but it's still been lots of drawing which is such a dream to be able to do for work.

Aside from books, I think the only digital art that I made this month was the jellyfish party for our April illustration club. It's always so fun to draw party scenes, I think you could add a party hat to any animal and it would double their cuteness immediately.

It's also lovely seeing your own versions of the prompt in the community chat here on Patreon, so be sure to pop in there to see what everyone is making. And don't worry if you don't finish yours before the end of April - feel free to share it anytime!

I did get the chance to do a little bit of sketching this week just for fun though, so I played around with drawing different houses. I was inspired by the game Tiny Glade where you build and decorate a little village - have you played it? It's very relaxing.

Hope you're doing well! Let me know what you've been up to 🥰

💖 Mimi
