Draw and Chat Ep1: Garden Dreams Illustration process, an app I love, loving Vincent movie review

February 27, 2018 Romica Spiegl

Hello, 

here in England it's snowing and all wintery which makes me dream of summer. Welcome to a new video series called "Draw and Chat". I'm still thinking of what it should become so I'm open to your suggestions :) But for now, this is episode 1. I might live stream those episodes in the future, because then you'll be able to ask me questions and interact with me, and I can save some time editing so you can get to see videos faster :) Because this video was filmed beginning of February, and I'd like to become faster at uploading videos.

In this episode, you can get behind the scenes and watch me draw an illustration for a competition. You can see my illustration process with coloured pencils (Polychromos and Prismacolor Premier) and observe how I turn from sketch to finished drawing. I also share an app that I use to train my colour perception called I love Hue, my thoughts on loving Vincent, and a surface pattern class I currently take to turn my illustrations into patterns for products.I hope you enjoyed watching my drawing / illustration process and hear my review of Loving Vincent, which was in the cinema at that time. Have you watched it? What did you think?

I really hope you found this video helpful. Share your thoughts and like this video if you liked it. This helps the video to be found by other wonderful people like you.

Stay joyful,
Romica
