Can you create an illustration with three watercolours? Let's find out as I take you through my process of creating my traditional fantasy illustration “An Early Riser”. Starting with the sketchbook process, choosing the colour palette, and then diving into the illustration itself. I’ll share the highs and lows of my creative process, and how through it all I form a consistent art practice.

If you spend time around art communities you may come across Draw This In Your Style challenges. In this blog post I share my approach to hosting my own DTIYS challenge using a recent ink and watercolour character illustration. I also explain what the challenge is, and how you can host your own.
