A sketchbook page that has been covered in red and pink ink. Drawn on top is a bird, it is stylized and sketchy and has a human-like eye. A thought bubble coming from it’s head reads ‘CHIPS’
A sketchbook page that is painted in gouache, showing a strange creature that looks part dog and part kangaroo. It has long droopy ears, big eyes, only two legs, and a long tail. Text on the page reads “Creature from the Garden of Earthly Delights”
A sketchbook page painted with gouache showing a sun on a blue sky background. Text in the middle of the sun reads: “Too damn hot!”
A drawing of a potted strawberry plant, with many berries drooping from it. The drawing is loosely rendered, and coloured with alcohol-based markers.
This drawing is done on the backside of the same paper with the strawberry plant. The colours have bled through the paper. On this side the colours are used to create a drawing of a person with big wavy green and pink hair.
A watercolour sketch showing a classic Hilroy brand notebook, with the words “tried and true” next to it.
A sketchbook page created with acrylic markers. Big blocky letters read “Good enough” on a dark blue background with a dotted border.
A sketchbook page showing blue mountains and the ocean against an orange sunrise, drawn with alcohol-based markers. Text above the image reads “Beach sunrise”
Layers of watercolour circles blend on the paper. This sketch was done using very wet paints to create interest bleeds where the colours meed. It is abstract and doesn’t represent anything in particular.
