Another street sketch. This one is of Old Street, London.

a chaotic page of short lived bursts of creativity

For day 15 the inktober word was weak so I decided to approach the subject of hunting for trophies. It is not the animal that's weak it's the human that's cruel. A lot of species become endangered because of our need to kill. We should love and protect all the animals, not put them on walls (real or virtual) only for our pleasure and ego.

When you run out of pages...

Rajasthani doodle of an elephant

I've got a new sketchpad so I drew a handy reference of robot emotions. More at www.rideawave.co.uk

Unaware - i don't think there's a good way to find out you're a robot...but having your skin melt off your arms to reveal a metal skeleton is probably not ideal.

Last one of Patternz series 2.

This was one if my first sketches I did after receiving a package of brushpens

This started as a pencil drawing (see the 2nd image) that I scanned and put into Photoshop. I tried various filters including: Smudge, Ink Outline, some Splatter, changed the Exposure and added a Sepia Photo Filter. After a couple of hours of playing (I’m not very knowledgeable about digital possibilities and just use trial and error) I ended up with a dramatic image with which I am quite happy. The reference was a magazine advertisement.

A combination of colors and shapes swirling in space. No reason, just fun!

I've been drawing a lot of mandalas lately. Circles, upon circles, upon circles! I love it! It's very soothing and meditative.

Breaking out of the prisons we make for ourselves

Here is one of 3 illustrations I made for customizable postcards, available for purchase at @cava.galeria I wanted to use this green/bluish colour, plants, and a very curious human in this case. What do you think the person is saying? *The size is 15,5 cm by 11 cm Limited number of postcards

Watercolor illustration of veggie baskets at the Farmers Market.

I took over as organizer of a Ladies Wine & Design group. Recently, I attended a grand opening of a co-working space, alone. I received some “compliments” that I’m not sure were compliments. To quote Chris Griffin: “I’m so awkward!?!”

Another one of blob to creature exercises. Watercolor on A3

Sketched during a live stream of one of my favorite people, this artwork is symbolic of how we creatives communicate and interact using social media.

Experiment of Pilot Pintor pens

Just doodling ... out came a proliferation of blue leaves.

Graphite and iron oxide recovered from acid mine runoff on watercolor paper

(2B pencil on an A7 page) This is one of eight images I used in a small booklet I made about "The Little Black Book" and the contacts and comments people would write in such address books. This one is of a pirate. Others include a superhero, an alien, a witch, an angel, and a cat. The full set can be seen here on my art blog: https://www.skavart.co.uk/2020/06/the-little-black-book-vidi-vici-veni.html

I draw lots of rabbits, tried adding a little heart to this sketch.

I’m 32 days into a 100 day project of little paintings to reclaim moments of creative joy with no strings attached – a daily reminder of what made me want to be an “artist” in the first place. I’m posting daily on my Instagram account @stephdillondesign

The austral pygmy owl (Glaucidium nana) or Chuncho is a species of owl in the family Strigidae. It is found in Argentina and Chile.

Scanned from one of last years sketchbooks. Micron pens for basic sketch, added shadows with Koi watercolor pen, and used acrylic paint for the green background.

Just a random page of doodles from my sketchbook!
