♥ February's Pin up Girl ♥

♥ Happy Valentine's Day everyone! ♥

Today's the most romantic day of the year, and it's the perfect day for you to meet February, the second girl of my 2016 Pin up Calendar ! ( *¯ ³¯*)♡

I confess my first idea was to draw her eating chocolates (LOTS of chocolates), which is my favourite gift for Valentine's Day... or any regular day xDD But since red was the main colour, a big bouquet of roses fit a lot better and looks very romantic. 

After all, is there anybody who wouldn't love to receive a Valentine's gift like this one? ;)

I'd look this happy if I had a giant box of chocolates for Valentine's day, 

but roses are fine too xDD

This is just the second of the 12 pin up illustrations of my 2016 Calendar hurry up and get yours to enjoy full of sweetness and sensuality. You can see all the special promos of my calendar here!

And if you're feeling romantic visit my Society6 store, it's now full of love!

Doodling with bright colours, my favourite thing :)

Brigitte Bardot: hair goals *o*

"What's a place like this doing in a girl like you? Oh wait... err..."

You'll probably be seeing this last sketch again, 

as I plan on painting it and use it as a lighting practice :D

More coming soon~ !

❄ January's Pin up Girl ❄

❄ Meet January, the first girl on my 2016 Pin up Calendar !

She's inspired on a beautiful outfit I saw years ago in a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. I remember it very well because it was the very first time I saw Candice Swanepoel and she was so beautiful that I became a devoted fan inmediately ♥ ♥ ♥
And I kept in my heart the desire of drawing that wonderful outfit someday ꒰♡ˊ͈ ु꒳ ूˋ͈꒱.⑅*♡

... Yes, January's clothes are kinda small but don't worry about her, she's like Frozen's Elsa,
the cold never bothered her anyway! 

And this is just the first one of the 12 pin up illustrations of my 2016 calendar, hurry up and get yours to enjoy a 2016 full of sweetness and sensuality. You can see all the special promos of my calendar here!

And last but not least, now my Society6 store is updated with lots of cool new goodies,
so you can always carry January with you!

The Truth is Out There.

I'm so excited about my childhood hero's comeback! 

When I was a kid I was such a huge fan of The X Files - though I guess most times I didn't really understand what was going on... but that might happen again now when I re-watch the episodes xDD -
I even made my own "FBI agent ID card" and of course I played as "Dana Scully", what a great character ♥

"2016 Pinup Calendar" now available!

You can now purchase my "2016 Pinup Calendar" in my BigCartel store!

Nerdy Girl

... Have I ever told you I HATE characters who wear glasses?! (ு⁎ு)྆྆
Maybe I've watched too much anime, but that kind of characters are always boring, way too serious and have the excitement of a rock. Also, glasses usually make me really mad because they tend to ruin a cute character design, and that's a sin to me ( •̀ω•́ )

BUT then one day I made this drawing as part of a commission for stamp sets, and man, I don't know how, I unexpectedly fell in love with this nerdy beauty *o*
The final artwork was in just black line, so I've kept the sketch in the drawer for several months, waiting for a chance to paint it in my own style and make it part of my collection of coloured sketches.

And now that I've finished my calendar and that I have TONS of commissioned work to finish up before Christmas (... pray for me x____x), it has been a perfect excuse to use it as a quick colouring practice to clear up my mind!

... Now I think maybe even I could be happy wearing glasses (⁄ ⁄^⁄ᗨ⁄^⁄ ⁄)
