Tried drawing a mermaid yesterday because why not, as I always say… unfortunately my first few attempts looked like someone punished a toilet, so I nixed that idea until now. Third (I think) time lucky?
Drawing of my character I did in May. This sketchbook is almost done. I don't want use my new ones until I draw on every page. The grey and purple is a colored pen.
This delicate digital illustration captures the quiet charm of a hazel dormouse, portrayed with soft textures and warm, natural tones. Every fine hair and subtle contour has been carefully rendered, bringing a lifelike sense of warmth and vulnerability to this enchanting woodland mammal. The dormouse’s glossy, expressive eyes and gentle posture invite the viewer into its secretive world, hidden among hedgerows and ancient woodlands. Created using digital drawing apps, this piece blends realism with a tender, almost storybook quality — a celebration of one of Britain’s most beloved yet rarely seen native species.
The new chapter is in progress and one of the two scenes is already written, but for now I've made the cover for the fanfic and the masterlist, hehe.
Mostly this was just an experiment with black and white and some brushes.
