'Tree Pose', A3 sketchbook, Ink and coffee @AniaPawlik2019

This is a mix of pencil, ink, and gold leaf.

This was a commission for a friend

Mixed media artworks. Created in conjunction with each other, on a single piece of paper. As the colors of marker or watercolor bled through, so I worked with the motifs on both sides. It is no secret that i absolutely love birds and they feature so heavily in my drawing/illustrative work.

This is one of the pages of my handmade picture book (made w/ watercolor paper, watercolor paint, color pencils, and pen & ink). I really wanted to focus on illustrating the beauty of the architecture and vibrant colors of the buildings.

The second of my character uploads. Nara is a dragon with her life force connected to nature and who has a very compassionate heart. She hates when fighting occurs.

I love doodling flowers into shapes, and I started this one as a circle, then it morphed into the planet (sort of).

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.

I did this one in India ink and colored it with Winsor & Newton drawing inks. I love the vibrance and transparency of illustration inks, but don't use them too often because the colors are fugitive

A piece from my vernal pools/treescapes studies I have been working on in correlation to my interest in local creature found in our woodlands. I adopted the use of a circle one night, wanting to frame out an idea/sketch and a wine glass happened to be close by. Since then I have used it often, loving the circle aspect.

One of my favorite scene from Corteo (Cirque du Soleil).

As cunning as a fox - pen and ink scribble drawing which is part of a series of common sayings which will be silk screened and mounted as a set.

How many Frogs Do i Have to Kiss? A study of frogs for the series on familiar sayings in the UK.

Quick sketch of a snowy tree outside my room.

Whew!!! About 50 hours of work split evenly over line work and color. I think it’s finished ( famous last words)! I’ll check on it again in a few days for any final details... and get some good camera shots instead of phone camera. .... but I’m happy!

Pencil on paper/digi. Based on the popular lore of my place of birth.

This is one of my favorite artworks, it is done with oilcolors on canvas. Really enjoyed making it

Customarily, families give their homes a thorough cleaning in the days leading up to Lunar New Year’s Day. Windows are scrubbed, floors are swept, and furniture is dusted in preparation for the new year, sweeping away away the bad luck of the past year. In addition, dusting is avoided on New Year’s Day, for fear that good fortune will be swept away.

My current sketchbook is the lovingly titled "Blue Sketchbook." Feel free to enjoy its many, many pages, plus two bonus zoom-ins of favorite spreads! Let me know if you have any questions.

Ink and pencil drawing of a walrus skull on A5 paper

Hello. This is my kawaii or just had a good meal ‘Fu Dog’ (fortune dog 福狗) - a sculptures you’ll find guarding the entrance of the Chinese temple. Well, although theirs named as Fu Dog, these creatures are not dogs at all, but lions - Lions of Buddha, to be precise. The male fu dog is usually portrayed as fierce and the wide open mouth is to let evil spirits out—and the sphere at its feet, its symbolise its role as protector heaven~~fu dog normally comes in pair, male and female, but I am too lazy to draw another one

Making snowmen is one of the most fun childhood winter memories I have. That and sledding.

A fun drawing I did of an octopus who's aspiring to be a writer. Because you know, octopuses have a lot of ink!

Morning light, coffee and crosswords.

Visual lists are a good reminder of what I have to do... or what we already did!
