good news: I finished my tiny painting of @glitterpastels as a belated birthday present! definitely not my usual colour palette, but she was a lot of fun to paint 🌈
and all of a sudden I have a recognisable face staring up at me from the paper (still a wip tho) https://t.co/ah6oqxzbCg
Today I offer you more sketchbook Spocks. Tomorrow, who knows!
#startrekfanart #spock
and from the night before!
For real though, as a perfectionist, it was v freeing for me to get out my gel pens and cheap coloured pencils, and make art without trying to be 'good' - instead just drawing for the joy of it! Would highly recommend
actually it was important to my mental health to draw as many Spocks as I could last night :)

here, have some details so u can see just how much effort I put into those patterns and textures
good news: I finally finished the second part in this diptych of my friends and their cats 🎉
watercolour + a little bit of white gouache on Arches CP paper, approx 8x10"
watercolour on Arches aquarelle cold press paper, approx 8x10"
I tried something very different with this piece - a colour palette of mostly phthalos and quinacridones (no ultramarine for once!), and introducing some gouache for the patterns and highlights
detail shots +hand for scale. Tiny faces are my jam okay
Also fun fact: the screencap is from The Conscience of the King, and in that moment Spock's vibe is more "seriously Captain, you brought this random woman aboard just to flirt with her?" than whatever's happening here 😅
and some close-ups!
brush pen + W&N Cotman watercolours on Arches cold press paper (u can do wonderful things with student grade paints if u have quality paper!), approx 7x9"
my style + skills have grown a lot since then, but I still love this one
