I drew the teapots from this fabric!
Here is the bug beach I made with my niece Emerson and my sister. After showing Emerson the different kinds of moss growing on the bricks, she had the idea of turning it into a beach just for bugs! We drew umbrellas and flowers and taped a stick to the back so we could poke them into the ground. The bugs have beach chairs and towels, which they needed after taking a swim in the (bowl of) water.
(They’re drawn with permanent marker and were fine after sun bathing)
I finished! It started out as inspiration from this sketchbook page by Jon MacNair, and then deviated from that. The right side is oil pastels with red paint. I used some eyes painted on fabric that I made a while ago for creepy dude.
A whole website of illustrated recipes?! I’m quite liking They Draw & Cook. You can search by illustration style, recipe type, or by ingredient!
Fig Marmalade by Lucile Prache
Oatmeal with Honeyed Figs by Jessica Pollak
Focaccia by Anita Lozar
I traced some oldish cat sketches in pen and colored them in…they’re from an exercise in the book Drawing Lab by Carla Sonheim (draw cats from your imagination, keeping the lines simple and optionally switching to non-dominant hand).
I like: illustrated recipes!
Page from a new sketchbook/art journal I started, one with lovely brown paper! I have yet to finish a book; I think I have six different books laying around, some with most of the pages blank.
Anyway, I thrifted the little white jug, it’s maybe one of those things to put oil in (I painted it without the stopper). On the left side I painted the design from a piece of fabric I had.
Those feathers!! I love this style of 60’s illustrations.
Google image search tells me this is by John Alcorn.

I’ve always had a thing for terrarium’s there like little worlds trapped inside a bottle this little postcard illustration is just lovely
Yes yes yes. Never thought I’d be into terrariums like my mom, but of course with all these cutesified versions that have been around…
I bought myself some markers (BIC Mark-It) and drew this birds of Brazil picture from Vintage Printable. Also sketched: Arnold (my Baby Jade Bonsai) and George the kitty!
