I think figurative art is my ADHD hyperfocus/mindfullness thing now.

This came out quite well

... but not as well as this. Which is the best thing I've done in years. Obviously it helps not really doing anything artwise for years.

I've just discovered you can do animation using Procreate (sadly you have to draw each frame tho), so here's a quick animated drawing of our cat watching a spider

Thanks

Quite pleased with this, because a: it's not our grumpy middle aged cat sleeping b: it was super quick to draw c: this 'draw something quickly and it looks ok' thing is a product of being strict with myself about drawing everyday, and I hope it happens again.

I've started drawing crows, because, err, they're easy.

Mum's been wanting me to draw her (grumpy) cat for ages. Will it be done in time for Xmas hmmmmm

Test prints as I go, pretty close to being finished

First proper prints

So this cat, she is very shy and my mum is the only person who can get close enough to take a picture. And my mum is not great at taking photos. She sent me quite a few before this one,
I told her get one when she's outside, at least that guaranteed some decent lighting!

It's been some months though so will still be a surprise.

Charcoal sketch. I can't find an eraser so am limited with techniques! Correcting mistakes being one of them

Holy shit you are so good

Mumbles274 loving the block prints too!

Thanks! X

That's so beautiful smmudge

I found a rubber. The lovely thing about charcoal is how you can keep working it. The process of the piece is as organic as the medium

 

[Mumbles274]

Print run

Further work on the charcoal piece
