Hi everyone! After visiting a really cool art supplies store and buying a bunch of canvases and acrylic paints, I got to business! As much as I usually do detailed portraits, I also always enjoy looking at others' abstract art. Well, all the inspiration stacked up and I had to put it out there! Also, since it was an exceptionally nice day at the end of September, I took the easel outside and painted in my mom's garden, in the warm sun. What an experience in itself ❤️🎨 Here is a video of the first one: Watch the painting of: Teal, Turquoise, White and Gold And some pictures of more. What do you think? I will be posting different videos of some of these and other art videos of mine on my Youtube channel. Also, big hello to Paint Party Friday !  Have a great day! :)  Kate

Hi everyone! Someone on my channel mentioned that I should do a film star, and I thought that since I haven’t really done any celebrities in a long time - why not! I chose Emma Stone as the first one. I really enjoy her performance (and have yet to see her in the Cruella movie).  Although the person in the comments mentioned I should do it with charcoal, I realized I didn’t have any at home and so I reached for what I had and what I most enjoy. So it’s the stylized thick and thin lines, and vibrant watercolors. I hope you enjoy this. Please watch the video and if you like it, share it!  Thank you and have a great day! Kate  

Hi everyone! Today I'm going to share with you something that is near and dear to me. Something that is a big part of my life, yet something I haven't paid much attention to in over a decade. That is fashion illustration.  Watch:  Fashion Portrait n.1 in an upcoming series HOW I GOT TO FASHION ILLUSTRATION I studied fashion design and absolutely loved the amount of art that the 4 years of studies provided! I especially appreciate learning anatomy and how to draw portraits. That is something that has stayed with me. The whole fashion thing sort of fell off the table because I wasn't a good seamstress, and there weren't really any opportunities in my country for fashion designers, much less for fashion illustrators. So I kept art as my hobby, occasionally making some money doing custom portraits. I also ventured into other areas, such as digital and vector art, but always seemed to come back to the traditional hand rendering. There is just something special ab

Hi everyone! I love drawing portraits! And it so happens that it’s one of those things I choose to draw just to relax, when I have a free moment, or after a long day. There hasn’t been much thought prior to drawing them, but as they started looking more like a collection, I decided they deserve their own publication and so I compiled them and turned them into a coloring book. Tadaa! Here it is! Artwork from random moments of 2018-2021.
