Much thanks, I have a society6 account (Reneart) where I will post the finished product.

Yes you are more than welcome too :)

It just came to me one day. I started drawing my dreamer piece and thought to change what I was doing; to do something different. For the last 4-5 years, the shapes in my ‘illustrative’ style (as I call it) started to become present in many drawings. Dragons, fantasy creatures, people with armour etc. It wasn’t until I started to do animal portraits that I expanded on the style, trying different shapes and seeing what worked and what didn’t. Nowadays, I’m trying the style in new media and in colour, which is proving a little more difficult as I have a lot to learn about the style myself.
I guess the best way to put it, was emptying my mind and following an imaginary line on paper. Never ‘force’ a style to evolve or change; I use to do that when I was young, and it never works out. Listen to good music, take inspiration from nature, dreams etc. and just try something different!
