The inspiration for this drawing came from Bev Johnston. Thank you!
I originally drew my image on paper, but later imported it into procreate so that I could color it.
Last Piece of the Year!

Charcoal Eye Drawing
For this drawing I decided to use a sketchbook and charcoal pencils rather than Procreate. It helped me learn so much about shading and what details must be noticed in drawing that I didn’t really understand as well before.
African American Woman
This time I chose to draw an African American, which I had been hard pressed about by my sister, Ava. She wanted me to stretch myself, and as a result this was what I created. In addition, I tried some other unique styles that was very different from what I had done before.
Learning to Draw with the 6B Pencil
Today I tried practicing with a brush on procreate, the 6B pencil. I altered the brush a little bit, however, and made it especially sharp on the ends, which allowed me to achieve this look:
The Coy Fish
Today I chose to do something completely different, which was drawing a coy fish. I used brushes I had never used before, and had so much fun!
The Tree of Life
For one of my school classes I had to read a part of Revelation and draw the Tree of Life. I drew this on Procreate, and it will be presented in class tomorrow. Also, for the Google Doodle Contest, I unfortunately didn’t win, even though this was expected. I will keep entering in these contests, however, and not lose faith in my drawing abilities. I had so much fun for both of these projects!
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
Even though this post is a little late, I still wanted to post it because I tried something entirely different. I have never done a background like this before, and never something about St. Patrick’s Day. This challenge was especially fun!
My Google Doodle Entry
There is a Google Doodle contest with a prize of $30,000 to college scholarship, and a $50,000 technology package for their school or non-profit organization. I knew that the chances would be slim to none, but I thought that it would still be fun to try. This year’s theme is on “inner strength,” and I tried to show that through this drawing. I also added, “God made me in his own image,” on a sticky note, and I probably won’t win for that, but as Mr. Miyagi says, “Principle before passion.”
Schoolwork for Science Class!
For my science class, I had to create a poster about photosynthesis. I used Procreate, and wanted to show that you don’t only have to use it for drawing pictures. You can type with different fonts, color in titles, and so much more! My mom is a teacher, and suggested that I should try to do it on Procreate, because she knew that I would enjoy the project more.
Girl with Short, Blonde Hair!
This girl took two hours to finish, as well as most of my drawings. This time I tried drawing far enough down that you can see a shirt. I also added it to my portfolio if you are interested in seeing the finished image. Let me know what you think!
