On the drawing board atm…I did a version of this image back in 2016, but I had the urge to draw it again. The eyes are so expressive on this gorgeous chimp…Hope I can do him justice.💛 Pastel pencils on Canson Velvet paper. Ref: Paul Sherman.

Finished the pots today! 🙌 Had lots of fun with the all the surface textures…but are they copper or brass? 🤷‍♀️ Either way, they’re done. Pastel pencils on Velvet paper. Ref: Wendy Hodgkin Corniquet.

‘Cake O’Clock’ - finally finished the first drawing of 2026 🥳. Started this back in early December and I have no idea how many hours it’s taken, but it’s a lot! 😮‍💨 . Pastel pencils on Pastlemat. My own reference.

Slow going…it’s been a stinking hot day here, so the aircon is cranked up and I’m drawing bubbles to try and keep cool!😎

A bit further along…and enjoying all the little details. 🤗
