For this year I have set quite a few goals when it comes to art. Besides the basic and important need of having to get better and to improve overall, I want to make about 5 to 7 finished paintings each month. This will make me have a regular and consistent schedule to dedicate to painting and allow me to have enough content to share!
And as a way to archive it properly on my blog, I decided to make a monthly blog post recapping what I have done and briefly talk about each painting. So let's start!
GARNET
GARNET
This was my first illustration for my Birthstone series. It's meant to represent the garnet which is January's birthstone and its association with love and health.

GLOWY MERMAID
Since mermaids were pretty much the only thing I would doodle about during my teen years, I realised that I have never tried to do it digitally which is quite an insult to my younger self! After this one I also made another mermaid sketch that I've been wanting to finish, so if you like mermaids as much as me be sure to stick around if you'd like to see it! :)

BONFIRE
One of my art related resolutions for this year is to draw guys. I've always felt like drawing girls was much more fun due to the body proportions and the extravagant outfits that we can create; slowly but surely I've been able to find some fun in drawing men and I definitely want to explore it more and more. For this one, I drew this sort of hunter in front of a bonfire.
LEAF WINGED ELF
This painting started as a pretty random girl face sketch and the final result that you see now evolved from there. I'll be posting the timelapsed process tomorrow on my Youtube channel! :)
FRAN BOW
I started to play Fran Bow a few days ago and I have been enjoying it a lot. I wanted to incorporate her tree form in some way and I wanted to portray a bit of nonsense when it comes to the background to reflect her quite crazy and twisted mind. This painting was streamed in its entirety on Twitch. I am still not sure whether I should use Picarto.tv or Twitch to stream, so if you have some insight about it I'd appreciate it!

AMETHYST
This painting will be the second illustration for my Birthstone series which represents the Amethyst! I will be releasing the timelapsed video in the next few weeks.
And that's it for the month of January! I hope you liked it and be sure to stay tuned for future posts. You can sign up for this blog's newsletter and follow me on social media if you'd like!
See you tomorrow! ❄
That is a whole lot of great work! Keep it up gurl!
