This took me a long time to complete: 5 or 6 hours over two days. And it’s rather small as I drew it on my little Canson artbook (10,2 x 15,2 cm – 4 x 6 in)

Apparently this month is the celebration of Black history so this is timely.

I painted this 3 years ago almost day for day. [update: I misread the month next to my signature 😱 It was Jun. not Jan. So “almost”, give or take 6 months! 🤪]
Pentel Brushpen, watercolour (sepia, lamp black, quinacridone rose), 23×30 cm.
It’s after a much cleaner piece by the talented @jungshan from Taiwan whose work I absolutely love!

All of my Drawvember 2020 drawings

Last year I did six series of 5 drawings on a given theme or technique and I really liked it, but this year I compiled a list of prompts, and chose any medium or technique I liked:

  • Dragon
  • Robot
  • Fur
  • Cherub
  • Carnival
  • Prey
  • Pyramid
  • Crane
  • Diving
  • Pounce
  • Buccaneer
  • Altitude
  • Shipwreck
  • Zebra
  • Drums
  • Cougar
  • Boat
  • Planet
  • Sullen
  • Jellyfish
  • Monkey
  • Angel
  • Vanquish
  • Depth
  • Villain
  • Lipstick
  • Cliff
  • Pure
  • Elf
  • Tower

All my drawings in one place

Conclusion

I loved it! I discovered in the process that I don’t really like coloured pencils, but that I absolutely love gouache painting!

I think I have improved over the years. Notably, for “sullen” I redid a drawing of “Woman Sitting on Edge of Veranda” by Utamaro Kitagawa. Four years apart, and this time the lines were crisper and there was simply more details.
