July & August Recap – What Happened These Months? 🎨

Hey everyone!
Just popping in with a quick monthly update in case you missed anything from July or August. A lot has happened, so if you skipped over something, now’s a great time to dive back in and catch up!

Many of these you can explore with a free membership, while some are special treats for my lovely Patrons in the higher tiers. 🌟 If you’re not in any tier yet, maybe now’s the perfect time to give it a try! No worries—you can switch your subscription anytime.

Fish Summer 🐟💙

This summer was definitely a Fish Summer 🐟💙 with these two little fellas—plus one more swimming in very soon! From sketch to color, shading, highlights, and all the cute details, it’s been such a joy to bring them to life. ✨ And as a special treat, there’s an extra bonus for all the lovely folks (brushes, PNG outlines, practice sheets…) in the Little Art Club Tier. 💕

A cute, charming fish lady right here! 💖

And this cute yellow fella here!

And of course, we had some bubbly fun together in this funny and quick tutorial. 🫧 As a thank-you, I’ve also added those bubbles as a PNG in the Little Art Club Tier, so you can pop them straight into your own art. ✨

Kitty in 5 minutes (+ extra trick) & Frankenweenie!

This super quick and easy Procreate tutorial was so much fun! ✨ And as a bonus, you’re getting a free fur brush—my absolute favorite one! 🐾 Plus an extra trick, how to very quickly fake a texture canvas.

And we celebrated Tim Burton’s birthday with a Frankenweenie drawing! 🖤🎨 So much fun!

Process video

I shared the entire process video of this cute monster in the Art Adventures tier – every brush stroke, every layer, and all those little behind-the-scenes secrets. So if you’re curious about character design and want to see how I brought this little fun fella to life, come join me there! 🎨✨

Fashion Bundle Update!

All the fashion tutorials, tips & tricks, custom brush sets, and more from Fashion Drawing (May and June content) have been wrapped up into one complete, beautiful bundle (check out here what is it about)! ✨ Your character outfit drawings will be easier, more fun, and feel super natural. 👗✏️ Available in the shop and in the Art Adventure Tier.

For those you already had my Fashion Bundle there is something new: I’ve turned clothing PNG outlines (plus a few fun extras!) into Procreate stamps – super easy to use and perfect for quick outfit designs.

The Secret Side of Children’s Books

In the Let’s Make Children’s Books tier, we’ve been diving into one of the most overlooked parts of a children’s book—the Bio page! 📖✨ If you’d like to learn how to think like an illustrator and bring those details to life, this tier is definitely for you!

I’m so excited to see what September brings! 🌸

Already dropped a hint—don’t miss out! 😄

Feel free to share your ideas about what you’d like to learn or explore this month—I’d love to hear from you!

Thanks for being here and supporting my creative journey 💛
