Painting is SO DIFFICULT. Tried to turn yesterday’s sketches into a painting, maybe that’s where I went wrong. It lacks the spontaneity of the original and I’m not used to being careful, and when I get the faces wrong and redo them the paint is all thick and the pencil doesn’t sit on the paint nicely. And then there are the colours… this was supposed to be purple and yellow but I ended up not using the yellow so it’s just strange sludgey colours (though I don’t mind them). However bits of it I like. #drawingmykids #walktosee #draweveryday #illustratorsoninstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #painting #paint #acrylicgouache #carandacheluminance #observationaldrawing #lifedrawing #drawingfromlife #drawingmychildren #picturebookillustrator

Most bedtimes are a battle where the kids compete Most bedtimes are a battle where the kids compete for attention until we’re all exhausted and short tempered but last night everyone listened to R4 comedy and drew together. I’m sure it’ll be back to normal tonight… #drawingmykids #walktosee #draweveryday #illustratorsoninstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #sketch #sketchbook #pencilsketch #fabercastell #fabercastellpolychromos #observationaldrawing #lifedrawing #drawingfromlife
