Three new drawings!

Wooaah.. I forgot to post some drawing I think.. I had a great holiday this summer and I totally forgot this blog.. silly me..

But I'm back again so I'm gonna post all the portraits I made last months right here (They're all bloggers or youtubers) I hope you'll enjoy it and please forgive me!

Love,

Erica

The first drawing is Mascha Feoktistova. She's a Dutch beautyblogger and youtuber. And yeah, she liked my drawing of her on instagram! Happy me :)

The second drawing is Jeske van de Staak. Also a Youtuber, sponsored by Coca Cola. Her youtube channel is called: CokeFrisChicks. She also liked the drawing on instagram and told me the drawing is great and she felt honored.

And last but not least: Youtuber Claire Simon (trengloss on youtube) This drawing took more than two hours because her face expression was very hard to draw. And I'm sooo excited right now. Claire is coming over to my house this weekend to pick up this drawing of her because she really loved it! I'm a little bit nervous but it's great :D

New drawing: Kristina Pimenova

This girl is sooo adorable! She's only 9 years old and already a model for huge companies! Her name is Kristina Pimenova and I got inspired by a photo of her. It took 3 hours but it's finally finished! :)

Digital drawing - fantasy girl

I was very very bored so I decided to make a drawing of a not-existing girl. It came out like this: A cute kind of 'fairy' girl with a flower and a shy face. I used pastel- colors to give her a very sweet appearance.

It's created in Adobe Photoshop CC with my wacom tablet.

Roller skate girl and first youtube video!

Last week I made a new drawing: a roller skate girl for a competition on instagram. I haven't won the contest, but I'm glad I made this drawing, because most times I avoid drawing body's because it's very hard to draw. Maybe I have to practice more with those things, but this is the result:

Oh and I made a youtube video! It's a tutorial for drawing pipe curls :) You can watch the video on this link.

Hello June Handlettering + Minicontest

Today I made a drawing at school in my little sketchbook. I drew it with fineliners. So welcome June. I hope you're good to me, and I hope I'll make lots of drawings this month.

I am making lots of handlettering drawings last week, because I want to print one of my own designs on a cotton bag as a present to myself and friends. And maybe I could sell more of that bags later, but I don't know what kind of quote I should use.. I already made a sketch with 'Friends don't let friends wear bad outfits' and 'A true friend says good things behind your back and bad things to your face.' 

Can you guys please help me? Do you know an awesome quote to print on a bag? When you're the one with the greatest idea you'll receive an original bag with your quote for free! :) So please help me and maybe I'll choose your quote :)

New drawing in color: 'Eye'

Last night I decided to draw something different. I always draw portraits and my favorite part of the portraits are the eyes. So I started with an eye drawing (A4 paper) I finished it three hours later and this is how it came out:

What is your opinion about this drawing?

First portrait in color!

This is a day for the historybooks.. I drew my first portrait in color! It's made with pastel pencils on A4 paper. It took 2,5 hours and it was very hard to do and to find the right colors, but this is the result:
