Green
This whole week/month/year has been way too stressful to not affect my creative process. I highly recommend this exercise to keep the creative juices flowing and to stop you from crying all over your sketchbook. (I always talk about it but in case you donβt know what I did, itβs pretty simple: draw splotches all over a page, and then with a pen, draw whatever creatures/shapes you see in them.)
More flowers
Springβs here! Well, more like straight-to-Summer here in Georgia, but in any case: FLOWERS! π·πΌπΊππΈπΉπ»
Purple monsters
Iβm currently recovering from covid and I canβt do much without getting fatigued. But that doesnβt mean my brain wants a rest, so hereβs a little creative exercise I did to keep my mood up and my mind busy! Sttay safe out there, friends.
Aa
Whenever I feel overwhelmed with a project (or most likely a deadline) I like to open my sketchbook and quickly draw whatever I feel like (90% of the time itβs lettering, not gonna lie). This is not procrastinating, I swear, itβs what keeps me sane and motivated to finish other projects. πππ
Hojitas
Warm-up exercise cause Iβve had a terrible creative block all week. βπΌπ±πΊππΈπΏ
Lil Monsters
I accidentally stared at the eclipse without my sunglasses on waaay too many times, and now I see lil monsters everywhere. #donttrythisathomekids πΎ
Piedmont Park
This winter the weather has been amazing (and very weird) so a few weeks ago I went to the park with my lovely friends and, believe it or not, the cutest puppy ran towards me and jumped into my bag. I didn't get to keep it though... Also, dear Atlanta, you're not crime infested and definitely not in horrible shape.
Fun Creative Exercise
Fun creative exercise: draw shapes all over a page of your sketchbook and try to come up with creatures that would fit in those shapes! It's kind of like seeing shapes in clouds, and it's great for your brain. (I did these today with recycled color pencils, and a monotwin pen, both from Tombow)
Then who?
Emma Watson is a constant source of inspiration, cause GIRL POWER!
Loving this month's package from Tombow! I've been doodling words ever since I got it. This lettering set for beginners includes 2 Dual Brush pens, a 4H drawing pencil, a Fudenosuke calligraphy pen, a permanent marker, an eraser, and a lettering guide. βοΈβοΈπ
Thankful
Always, ALWAYS! I'm particularly thankful for this brazilian passion fruit tea, and these ridiculously amazing Fudenosuke Brush Pens from @tombowusa, on this sunday morning. New favorite drawing tool alert! ππ€βοΈ
Midtown houses
If there is something I love about Atlanta, is the way houses look. This one is my favorite from the midtown area. It's green, yes, green.
Tools
Pencil in spanish is called "lΓ‘piz", brush is "pincel", and pen is "bolΓgrafo"; just so you know.
Stefon, ladies and gentlemen
My favorite character from SNL, without a single doubt. Sorry Garth & Kat.
Illustrated list of things I want my family to bring Venezuela
I'm recycling this illustration, cause my family will be in town soon, and they forgot to bring some of the items I required the last time they were here. Not this time folks, bring me my stuff, it's an order.
Venezuelan Mojito
I could really use one of these. Don't drink and draw, kids.
Drawing in the park
Last month, me and my friend Sena, went to the park and enjoyed an eclectic mix of Venezuelan and Korean food, and made some drawings of trees. I need to do this again, but I'd melt and die if I try to do it with this weather.
