Sketchbook

This sketchbook is where I keep the drawings that helped me find my way back to art. Some are practice pieces from drawing books, others are sketches from the world I’m writing. Nothing too polished — just moments, marks, and memories.

A pencil sketch of a single leaf with realistic water droplets across its surface, each shaded to show depth and light reflection.
A pencil drawing of a single rose in full bloom, with soft shading on the petals and two dark leaves behind it.
A pencil drawing of a halved coconut with a rough, textured shell and soft shadows beneath it.
A pencil sketch of a daisy-like flower with eight soft, rounded petals, gently shaded to create a smooth, delicate appearance.
A pencil sketch showing a close-up of a pair of lips above two shaded cherries. Each object is drawn separately, with strong contrast and smooth blending.

  • A pencil sketch of a single flower called the Aescinpetal, drawn in a soft-toned sketchbook. The flower has layered, ash-grey petals that resemble swirling smoke and a delicate stem with two sets of leaves. A faint white ring of ash circles the base of the stem, drawn beneath the plant. Three green graphite pencils rest beside the page. The name “Aescinpetal” is written in elegant, digital calligraphy at the bottom right.

    Sketch Saturday: Aescinpetal Flora Sketch This is my very first flora sketch, and I’ve been super nervous to share it. Until now, I’ve only drawn creatures for this world.

  • A pencil sketch of an insect-like creature called a Khautfly, drawn in a sketchbook. The creature has semi-translucent, blackened wings with faint rune-like markings, a thin sooty-grey body, and void-black eyes. The page shows delicate linework and some pencil smudging. The name “Khautfly” is added digitally beside the drawing.
    Sketch Saturday: First Creature Sketch – The Khautfly
    by Tiffany
    Sketch Saturday: Khautfly This is the first time I’ve shared one of my creature sketches from the world I’m building. I’ll be honest, I’m a little nervous about it. While worldbuilding, I realised I needed to see what I was describing. So I took my list of Lunaaris creatures and decided to start sketching them,…

    Back to Drawing
    by Tiffany
    Before I started drawing the creatures from my story, I needed to figure out if I could still draw at all. Relearning to draw was essential as drawing a fantasy world requires a unique set of skills and imagination. It had been a long time since I picked up a pencil for anything more than…
