🌼💀 51-57 for the #100Heads Challenge. Its taking me so long to get around to posting these I’m experiencing a kind of nostalgia when I do. Also kind of want to start the challenge all over again. 🤔 Don’t think the intensity of 10x day is realistically an option at the moment, but maybe I should be trying to figure out a mini version for getting back to practice. 📝 ICYMI: Draw 10 heads a day for 10 days.

Midyear roundup of my 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reads from January through June. Wandering a little out of my fav genre (adult epic fantasy) resulted in most of these finds. Plus many 4 star discoveries too. Well pleased with the reading year so far and hoping the trend continues! 🌚 Also 5⭐️ but not pictured is Notes on a Nervous Planet by Matt Haig as I tend to get my nonfiction as library ebooks. Doodles done via procreate on the iPad. 🌸🌿 #bookstagram #doodle #bookstagrammer #bookstack #bookstagramfeature #bookishlove #bookaddict #igbooks #fivestars #booknerdigan #bookphotography #filigree #drawing
🌿🌾 Sunday strolls. The weekend is a great excuse to follow through on goal I set myself recently : to experiment more with how I edit photos and to have a play with design elements. 📷🤓 Admittedly inspired in part by fact that the dodgy wrist is back to not letting me churn out full sketchbook pages so looking for ways to get in quick sketching fixes. ✨ #doodle #hiddenscotland #hideaway #dundeebotanicalgardens #botanicalgardens #botanical #pursuepretty #ohsopretty #sketching #sundayvibes #illustration #scotland #drawing #illustragram #mixedmedia
💀✨ Bit of a story behind Heads 49-50 for the #100Heads challenge. This was the day I went to pick up the can of fixative to prevent pencil smudging… and instead used spray mount. 🙃🧐 My solution was a real hack job - chopping up one of those plastic wallets for binders and layering it over the now very sticky page. I’d also had to backtrack to a skipped pages. 📝 ICYMI: Draw 10 heads a day for 10 days.

🐸 Heads 43-48 #100Heads challenge. Neon shades of felt tip certainly less than subtle. But the messy figure it out as you go nature of the challenge is an excuse to experiment. 📝 ICYMI: Draw 10 heads a day for 10 days.

💀🙃Heads 39-42 #100Heads challenge. I seem to have forgotten midway I still had these to post. Not sure how it happened, but hopefully will remember to share heads 43-100 before 2020 gets here. 📝 ICYMI: Draw 10 heads a day for 10 days.

✨🚪Don’t think I’ve ever by passed the chance to photograph an old door - and it’s bonus if there’s anything gothic to the architecture. I’m a little lost geographically in the ongoing hard drive declutter but fairly sure this is St. Andrews. 🗺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Visit due to wandering scholar and professor @aprilthompson3 More proof I owe a lot of photographic content(and otherwise!) to a best friend who’ll hike me up hills I have no business attempting. 🌿 #throwbackthursday #hiddenscotland #architecture #door #gothic #travelphotography #olddoor #igscotland #doorsandwindowsoftheworld #gothicarchitecture #gothicmood #discoverscotland #thisisscotland #historic
⚜️Heads 33-38 for #100Heads challenge. Yes, one reference was a Gandalf sculpture. Couldn’t quite figure out the brush pen work for soo much beard. Also the references I was least keen to sketch turned out my favourites on the page. (35+36) 📝 ICYMI: Draw 10 heads a day for 10 days.

💀🌼 Heads 23-28 for #100Heads challenge. Which somewhat turned playing card like thanks to stickers ♥️♣️ They came with an old notebook and got shoved in a drawer. I’m on a quest though to use or junk these random bits and bobs. 📝 ICYMI: Draw 10 heads a day for 10 days.

🌿🌼 Not quite the tower from Tangled… it’s just a wee bit shorter and less curved.
