  • Hard to tell without the green coat.

  • This is lovely! Bravo!

  • Thank you!

  • Correct!

  • I can't think of any image that inspired it, so I guess my own imagination. I read a book on Greek mythology a while back and it prompted me to draw my own take on some of these stories -- see here and here.

  • Thank you! :)

  • What a wonderful thing to read -- thank you so much!

  • Hahaha!

  • Thank you! Most depictions of this story show the flight and fall. I thought it would be interesting to show the quiet moment before disaster. I'm happy with how it came out!

  • Feathered things I won't be drawing for a while: penguins, parrots, pigeons, improvised flying escape machines, parakeets...

  • Thank you!

  • Thank you so much! This is the best picture I've drawn and I'm super proud of it.

  • Thanks! It's just an inexpensive, pointy-type dip pen (I'm unsure of the technical language here!).

    As for how she could sit still for so long: she's good at being a model! It's a real skill and she excels at it. Always a pleasure to draw her.

  • This is really nice! Love it.

  • That's such a lovely thing to read. Thank you.

    One of the nice things about life drawing is how accepting it is of all body types. Obviously we draw from a pool of people with a lot of body confidence, and that means some body types are overrepresented. But for the artists, we celebrate every body our models allow us to draw. If anything, it's the weird bodies we like best. There's beauty in all of them.

  • Oh my God THANK YOU.
