Another work break phone #sketch; this time experimenting with adding a touch of color (slide 2). Yo....I haven't posted in so long that I'm not sure what to add to captions any more.

Just a #sketch I did on my phone during my breaks at work. #Drawing small is an...experience; it always makes me feel like I've got big old sausage fingers haha. It was fun though! . . . . . . . . . . . . . #artistsoninstagram #Art #artist #portraitart #portraitdrawing #portraitsketch #womanartist #womeninart #womenwhodraw #blackartistoninstagram #blackartist #blackfemaleartist #femaleartist #aboriginal #aboriginalart https://www.instagram.com/p/CSuzZJWBRUg/?utm_medium=tumblr

Guys, instagram cropping makes me so sad hahahaha. Anyway, got a little #birthday #portrait #diptych for you of one of the dopest people EVER, @courage_muzic. She was destined to be great 'cuz all #February babies are the best lol (though peak Feb dopeness really hits around the 27th, I'm just saying 😉). The theme was #samurai (hence the mask in pic #2), and painting it reeeeally put me back in my high school love of all things Japanese. LOVE YOU GIIRRRLLL 🧡🧡🧡 . . . . . . . . . . . . . #digitalart #digital #digitalportrait #photoshop #blackartistoninstagram #blackfemaleartist #blackart #type4hair #womenwhodraw #womenofcolor #womeninart #Art #artist #artistsoninstagram #fineart #portraitart #mask #samuraimask https://www.instagram.com/p/CLGeXj0j5bt/?igshid=rmrln03d4fxj

#Sketch for the next #watercolorstudy situation; Ms #MarlaGibbs out here. I was compiling various classic #blackactresses for #blackhistorymonth and came across this one of when she was young, and I was like "UM, she was fly!" (Forgive my ignorance, she was a bit before my time lol). Anywaaaaaay I hope you're all doing well :) . . . . . . . . . . . . . #classic #goldenera #oldschool #blackartistoninstagram #blackartist #blackart #type4hair #blackfemaleartist #blackfemaleart #february2021 #hoopearrings #womenwhodraw #womenofcolor #womeninart #watercolorist #watercolorportrait #sketchbook #drawingsketch #drawing #Art #fineart #portraitart https://www.instagram.com/p/CK9le92Dlvj/?igshid=x729h58qosrq

I wanted to try something a little different and dip my toes back into #anime for a moment. When I saw the reference image (swipe to the last slide), I really wanted to try and replicate the soft gradation of color on her skin. I really enjoyed this, so I think I'll be adding more #illustrative and #manga #watercolors into the #art rotation. I hope you're all well! . . . . . . . . . . . . #watercolor #watercolorillustration #watercoloranime #watercolormanga #animegirls #mangaart #mangagirl #japanesegirl #blackartistoninstagram #blackfemaleartist #femaleartistsofinstagram #femaleartist #watercolorart #girlart #girlswhodraw #girlswhopaint #womenofcolor #womeninart https://www.instagram.com/p/CKS3gqpDlfL/?igshid=1w52k8ooifr89

Soooooo.. I ended up not liking this #painting as much as I hoped. I think the main issue is it isn't a close enough likeness to the reference image for me, and that started to bother me lol. Also, mistakes abound, but these #watercolorstudies are all learning experiences, right? Right. Somehow, it looks better in the photos than in real life (to me), but so be it! Of course, there are things I like about it too, haha. There are plenty of areas that could use more attention, but I'm legit ready to move on to another #study lol. I hope you are all well! . . . . . . . . . . . . #watercolorportraitpainting #watercolorstudy #watercolor #watercolorpractice #practice #fineart #art #traditionalart #traditionalartwork #womenwhodraw #womenwhopaint #womeninart #blackartistoninstagram #blackartist #blackfemaleartist #femaleartistsofinstagram #portraitart https://www.instagram.com/p/CKIhgyLDu09/?igshid=1llmplibwtkp0

The next situation in progress... . . I'm going to be mostly MIA for the rest of January, due to a little social media/entertainment fast, but I may still post #art here and there, as it comes 😁. . . . . . . . . . . . . #sketchbook #sketch #wip #watercolorportraitpainting #watercolorwip #drawingsketch #drawing #draw #womenwhodraw #womenofcolor #womeninart #blackartistoninstagram #blackartist #blackfemaleartist #artistsoninstagram #femaleartist #femaleartistsofinstagram #blackwomeninart #fineart #portrait #portraitdrawing #portraitpainting https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ9_kg-D2C8/?igshid=nmvlaiex7y4f

WELP. I've got two different UNFINISHED and UNSATISFACTORY #watercolor #illustrations for you today (swipe through to see both). I could probably continue to work on them but I've lost my steam so I'm chalking it up to practice and moving on lol.

OKAY SO BEAR WITH ME. I don't usually riff off past #artworks of mine, BUT I got this beautiful #photoshop action called #PixelArtist by #blacknull that I wanted to test out. I apologize in advance to all the legitimate, actual #pixelartists and #8bitartists that have invested copious amounts of time to develop their skills in the way of the #pixel, lol (mad respect to you). AAAANYWAY, I love the result and I love the plug in. I got it from @envato for the low low price of $7, if you want it (not sponsored, but a girl can dream, lol) . . . . . . . . . . . #retrovibes #retro #retroaesthetic #retrogaming #8bitart #8bit #8bitartwork #8bitaesthetic #vintage #vintageart #vintageartwork #gaming #pixelartwork #watercolorportraitpainting #pixelportrait #womeninart #glassesgirl #blackartistoninstagram #blackfemaleartist #femaleart #femaleartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CJJ6kz0jI1o/?igshid=1t0rgj94umir8

And here is the finished #watercolor! I low key high key kind of love it. It was a lot of fun to work on. I do wish I could get better #photos of these watercolors though, without the extra warmth and such (I feel like its making my account look dingy, but that may just be because I tend to be fonder of crisp, cooler toned #aesthetics for these sort of photo compilations lol). Anyway, if i don't see you before the holiday, Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal ❤. . . . . . . . . . . . #aquarelle #watercolorportraitpainting #watercolorart #watercolorillustration #watercolorist #watercolorstudy #watercolorstudies #fineart #Art #artist #blackwomeninart #womenofcolor #womenwhodraw #womeninart #blackartistoninstagram #blackartist #blackartists #portraitdrawing #portraitpainting #prettygirls #prettyart #glassesgirl #glasses #curlyhair #curlyhairstyles #curl https://www.instagram.com/p/CJH3A5ODFmw/?igshid=es1ju314rkkg

Whoop! Here's the base #sketch for the next #watercolorstudy, as well as it transferred onto #watercolorpaper (sorry that the transfer is a little hard to see). I know some #watercolorists are able to just #draw directly onto the watercolor paper, but GIRL I do A LOT of revising, erasing, and restarting and I'm not trying to damage or waste this expensive #paper lol. SIDE NOTE, if you are a #portraitphotographer or if you know someone who does #portraitphotography (or if you just take bomb photos of your interesting #face lol) that wouldn't mind their pics being used as reference, please let me know! I'm always scouring pinterest for people to draw. ❤ . . . . . . . . . . . #sketchbook #sketching #sketches #portraitdrawing #portrait #Art #traditionalart #blackartistoninstagram #blackfemaleartist #womenwhodraw #womeninart #fineart #glassesgirl #drawing #drawingsketch https://www.instagram.com/p/CJAXqldjRw3/?igshid=wbm3yfbp0zto

So this is the last of the #watercolorstudies from last month. Technically this is unfinished, but I BROKE MY OWN HEART when I messed up the previous version right at the end lol, so I started again with this one, but didn't really have the steam to git 'er done. Its just #practice anyway 😊. I have another #sketch on the board to #watercolor, so you'll see me again in a few days lol. . . . . . . . . . . . . #watercolorportraitpainting #watercolorart #watercolor #watercolorillustration #watercolorstudy #watercolorpainting #watercolorpractice #watercolordaily #watercolorist #art #fineart #portrait #portraitdrawing #drawing #painting #blackartistoninstagram #blackartist #blackfemaleartist #womenofcolor #womenwhodraw #womeninart #femaleart #femaleartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CI9u2U6DLVn/?igshid=5oh0f1zi8nbr

Another #watercolorstudy from last month (I have one more to post, then you'll be all caught up). This might be one of my least favorites of the bunch, mainly because I feel like the separation of skin and hair is too stark for my liking (as are some of the dark areas on the face), but at a certain point I decided to stop rather than continue to work it lol. The reference was in black and white with really nice shadows, so I was trying to #colorize it. I will say that I do like the #geometric quality of some of the areas, though. Anyway, thanks for looking 😁. Unrelated side note, do people actually read post descriptions? . . . . . . . . . . . . #watercolorportraitpainting #watercolorart #watercolorillustration #watercolorstudies #watercolor #watercolorportrait #watercolordaily #practice #watercolorpractice #sketchbook #sketch #drawing #Art #artworks #fineart #traditionalart #traditionalartwork #portrait #portraitpainting #womenofcolor #womenwhodraw #womeninart #femaleart #femaleartist #blackartistoninstagram #blackartist #blackfemaleartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CI6Jk89Dnz1/?igshid=11h7i3cvsg4y1

This is my favorite of all the #watercolorstudies I've done so far (even of the ones that came after it). This, unlike pretty much every other #painting in the series, was one take (no restarts). Anyway, I guess I don't have anything interesting to say about it except that I enjoyed a lot of things about the process and the result 😊. . . . . . . . . . . . . #watercolor #watercolorportraitpainting #watercolorart #watercolorillustration #watercolorportrait #watercolorportrait #watercolorpainting #portraitdrawing #portrait #art #artworks #artmoments #womenofcolor #womenwhodraw #womeninart #femaleartist #blackartistoninstagram #blackfemaleartist #bantuknots #yellow #femaleart #girlart https://www.instagram.com/p/CI18gniDKAA/?igshid=21gab76m9ig7

The third #watercolor #study from November. There were some things I could've pushed further or modified, but I decided to just leave it and move to the next round of #practice ☺. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #watercolorportraitpainting #watercolorart #watercolorillustration #watercolorportrait #watercolorportrait #womenofcolor #womenwhodraw #womeninart #blackartists #blackartistoninstagram #blackartist #blackfemaleartist #Art #artworks #artmoments #sketchbook #drawing https://www.instagram.com/p/CIzai3UjP2C/?igshid=vnnol0w7tkua

SO! Here is the 2nd "successful" #study in my attempts to master #watercolorpainting. This was also early November, but GUYS I struggled with this one; I had to start over 3 times lol. I've included my #bloopers in the last slide so you can see the progress I made on the #strugglebus. . . . . . . . . . . . . #watercolor #watercolordaily #watercolorart #watercolorillustration #watercolorportrait #watercolorportraitpainting #womenofcolor #womeninart #womenwhodraw #blackartistoninstagram #blackfemaleartist #Art #artworks #sketch #sketchbook #fineart #portraitdrawing #traditionalart #traditionalartwork https://www.instagram.com/p/CIw6tZRj3oX/?igshid=1repw3arkn0pv

Been holding out on you guys. I've been quietly trying to understand #watercolorpainting for a little over a month now, and this was the first successful painting I did back in November, and BITCH I WAS SO PROUD OF MYSELF. You guys, #watercolor has eluded me for years, but I'm starting to feel like I might be getting it. I added a few #panpastel touches at the end, and once I really grasp watercolor as a medium, I plan on adding it back into the process. . . . . . . . . . . #watercolorart #watercolorillustration #watercolordaily #portraitdrawing #portraitpainting #blackartistoninstagram #womeninart #womenwhodraw #blackfemaleartist #artworks #fineart #art #sketch #sketchbook https://www.instagram.com/p/CIukq9rDd1F/?igshid=9tuc9w798egh
