Hi everyone, TuTu here! 👋
I'd love for you to join me for a little sketchbook time on this rainy autumn day. Grab a cozy drink and let's spend some quiet moments drawing together! 🌿🍂

In this session, I'm drawing four little scenes with eight portraits: a girl with a goat, a boy with a cat, a girl with an antelope, and a boy with a dog.

Each one slowly comes to life through layers of colored pencil, soft shading, and little details in the faces, fur, and clothing. It was a rainy day in my studio, with the sunshine eventually finding its way back. It's a relaxed, approximately 45-minute sketchbook session to enjoy with a cup of tea, draw along with me, or simply unwind and watch.

I hope you enjoy spending this little bit of time here. 🤍

I've shared all four drawing references over on my Patreon (no membership needed). You'll find the link below.
