Seasonal Sketch Session Replay
A free drawing session; drawing plants and animals that can be found in my area in January
Thanks everyone for joining me yesterday for our new Seasonal Sketch Session!
I was a bit nervous because I wasn't feeling very well (I got hit by a car when I was cycling home after dropping my kid off at school on Tuesday. I'm ok but pretty bruised), and I was a bit weary of how my arm would feel as my muscles hurt a lot. But it was lovely, and although I had to stop drawing at times, I did manage to do all the drawings.
These are the references for this session:
I keep struggling with the settings for Zoom, now it only shows the person talking and not the whole group, at least now you get to see all the beautiful drawings people made:)
Mentioned:
- Beth Spencer -
(Their drawing Ducks session together with is next Monday!)- Emma Carlisle - Dinner Time Cat Drawing Club
If you liked drawing the goat, I think she also has a recorded session on goats:)
- Faber Castell Gelatos: they're not widely available anymore (at least here in the Netherlands), but you can find sets on second-hand sites like eBay or Vinted (if you're in Europe) or Marktplaats (if you're in The Netherlands).
- Kwik Stix tempera sticks: I recently bought this set because they have the basic vibrant colours but also more saturated colours that fit my personal colour palette.
Beth mentioned a Liquitex pen and opening it up, mixing your own colors, which I thought was a great idea if you’re not using a particular colour.
And I was so exhausted from drawing with a painful arm that I forgot to ask people to tag me on Instagram, haha. If you want to share your work on IG, please tag me @lascarlatte or mention this Substack; it would really help to get this community to grow!
