All Art for April





Hello again!!
So as you will possibly know due to my instagram and other posts here, I have been doing lots and lots of drawing lately. 
I thought I would launch a bit of a theme this month for all things visual arts as well as illustrations and drawings.Presenting......All Things Art for April!!!

 What's an even more exciting part of April, it's finally school holidays. I think I'm just going to go sailing all holidays, but don't worry I'll put aside some time for you!


So today to launch the month (slightly 6 days late!), I'm going to share some of my art that I have been doing lately. I've put this all together of doodles on my maths book as well as from my past and current sketchbooks. It is just lots of my favourites that maybe I might put up for sale as prints in my shop (launching later this year)



This is my favourite piece of art that i have done right now. I had just got myself some new pens and stationery and I just started drawing. I use an Artline 0.4 fineliner or a staedtler 0.4 triplus fineliner for my cartoon outline drawings.



This page, I am yet to fill up but have started with a drawing of my new cactus and some lavender in a pot. I shall make this a plant page


as well as my cartoon black line drawings I am also enjoying getting into abstract art more. The geometric design is done with bic mark it permanent markers and the brushstrokes are done with a small cheap watercolour pan set from Reeves.

This page was a little experimental page but turned into a beautiful page about 'home' - its very inspired by Flora Waycott

 So I hope you will enjoy this months little theme. in may we will be back to room decor and crafts! I haven't done a craft for ages.
Next week (should be around Fridayish) I shall post the second art post. Spoiler Alert: Finding your drawing style
xx harri

 P.S. I'll definitely be doing 'reader creations' throughout the month. its a big month focused on you!!

    Oh Harri! Your blog is so wonderful and so are your quirky sketches! You should make a shop like Chloe! I could so see these sketches on a pencil case or KiKKi.K's pencil case at that! You should talk to them ;)

    You really are a talented illustrator. Everything in this post (and before) has that perfect quirky edge but manages to capture the object accurately anyways. I don't know if I explained it right, but it's awesome! :)
