PROCESS VIDEO // wolf sketches - normal speed
Here’s some of the process for the wolf sketches I posted on Monday! It was filmed outside so the lighting kind of changes a bit throughout the video. This one is normal speed, and I’ll also be posting a sped up version in a minute! Hope you find these useful!
EARLY ACCESS // wolf sketches
I’ve been diving back into my sketchbook after a long phase of not really using it much! The sketchbook tours and beautiful weather outside inspired me to grab my sketchbook and make some studies. I didn’t even realize how much I’d missed this honestly. Here are some wolf studies, trying to ca...
UPDATE // it's May!
Can't believe April flew by so fast! Something about this lockdown lifestyle is turning time into a blur. How are you guys doing? Are you still hanging in there? Here's how April went for me: GETTING OUT OF THE COMFORT ZONEI’ve gotten back to doing animal studies and environments which I...
STEP BY STEP // lasso tool
I’ve been using the lasso tool more and more often in my process lately, so I wanted to throw together a quick resource so you guys can see how I use it. I used this technique a lot for the process of Ruffle (https://www.patreon.com/posts/process-video-1-35213520) and also for the thumbnails that ...
POLL // new video content
I know, I know.. So many posts in one day! But in the sketchbook tour I just posted, I mentioned that I have just one full sketchbook left, which I will flip through next month. After that, I’ve only got sketchbooks with a few pages filled here and there, so I need to consider some new ideas for v...
SKETCHBOOK TOUR // 2016-2017 sketchbook
Hey guys! Here’s my fourth sketchbook tour, filmed from my very own bedroom! Here’s a photo of the setup:Just a fair warning, some of the sketches contain nudity so technically not safe for work. It’s nothing extreme, just some nude models / sketches here and there!I reference a bunch of stuff...
SKETCHES // departure
For those of you who haven’t seen my second artbook, The Sketchbook of Loish, here is some art from one of the chapters called Departure! Because the book was focused on rough work and my creative process, I wanted to develop a story concept exclusively for the book. This way, I could show how I u...
EARLY ACCESS // deer studies
I’ve been getting back into doing quick animal sketches and studies! I’m using the lasso tool more and more in my process, as a way to quickly create shapes and also layer on shading and gradients. I’ll put together a quick resource explaining the process for that later this week, it's rea...
EARLY ACCESS // 2 million

UPDATE // sketchbook tour #4
Today I filmed the fourth sketchbook tour! Since I'm working from home, I transformed my bedroom into a studio for filming. I'm guessing this will have a positive effect on the audio quality, haha! The video will be posted up early next week! Stay safe everyone. <3
WIPS // standing wave
Thanks so much for all your feedback on the volcano piece! I’m feeling so inspired to finish one (or more) of them!I did some more work on this series where I explore dream-like settings, this one features a wave that stays in place (sort of like those scenes from moana)! Here are three thumbnails...
EARLY ACCESS // playgrounds demo
Last week I did a little live demonstration of my drawing process for Playgrounds Online! It was really messy because I wanted to show people how to work fast, so there wasn’t a lot of time for detailing! But later that evening I imported the sketch to my iPad and finished it off in procreate. For...
WIPS // volcano
I’ve been thinking about creating a series where I take memories that I have, or common settings for recurring dreams, and turn them into paintings that have a dream-like feeling. I want them to convey a poetic, weightless vibe but also use them as a jumping off point to practice scenes and settin...

EARLY ACCESS // stripes & blue
Some procreate doodles! I changed my focus to lineart and simple colors when using the iPad and procreate. If you’ve seen my digital painting process videos, you know that tweaking the colors and using shortcuts like feathered lasso are really essential to my painting process. I find these tools r...

EARLY ACCESS // studies
I wanted to do some anatomy studies focused around shapes - trying to exaggerate or simplify them so that the shapes were more expressive. I got a bit frustrated during the process and I’m not sure if these really worked out the way I wanted. This is generally a stage that I’m at right now - I w...

Hey guys! I did a little interview with Wouter Tulp yesterday on his YouTube channel and I wanted to share it here in case you guys wanted to see! It was a lot of fun to just be able to talk about art and answer questions. Took my mind off of the pandemic and other stressful things for a little whil...

PROCESS VIDEO // expression sketches
I did some expression sketches a while back which you might have seen on my socials! Here’s a little video that shows my sketching process. I kinda struggled with making this video and there were some focus issues, plus the phone bounced around a lot while I was filming, so I hope to make another ...
PROCESS VIDEO // self portrait
Here’s the process video for the self portrait I just posted! The painting took me around 3 hours to make, and it’s sped up about 4 times (slower than most of my videos so you can get a good sense of how I approach paintings like these!)Things to keep in mind while watching:LAYERING LIGHTER COLO...
EARLY ACCESS // self portrait
I haven’t made one of these in a while!! Here’s a self portrait that doesn’t really nail the resemblance but I’m happy with how the colors and lighting turned out. I usually draw from photo reference, so painting from real life is aways a huge challenge for me. Also, the lighting changed as ...
