EARLY ACCESS // plants
Added 2021-04-22 14:11:59 +0000 UTCI was going through a bit of a rough patch a few days ago (some health issues with my family that are now resolved!) and decided to sit down and draw some house plants to try and relax. I think I find it soothing because plants donβt have a face or expression so you can take some liberties with the proportions and stylization, and plants themselves are just so.. calming? Theyβre always there, just surviving. They're like gentle witnesses to our lives. So here are some house plant doodles for you all!

2021-04-23 10:05:39 +0000 UTCthanks! I can't resist adding saturated edge lines haha. I always feel like it brings the whole sketch to life.

2021-04-22 16:43:57 +0000 UTCOooo the orange lines around the edges give such a nice backlit vibe, like the plants are sitting in a sunny room. Gonna have to try this next time I sketch some plants :o beautiful work as always!
