Cordy Kelly Doodles

I began learning digital illustration summer 2021, with absolutely no clue what I was doing. It has been great fun to learn this skill, and my goal is to one day design my promotional materials. This is my journey. Photos are in reverse chronological order, so scroll back to see where I started!

End of summer sketches with some colour!

First attempts! This is the first time I have done any kind of drawing with colour since … Art 30? About a hundred years ago. Here’s a video of the struggle!

Illustrated letter K with knitting needles — First attempts at sketching in Procreate! It’s fun but feels like I’m writing with my left hand. I followed Gia Graham’s Hand Lettering in Procreate Fundamentals, in Skillshare.

Illustrative Y with fireworks, the word Yay — First attempts at sketching in Procreate! It’s fun but feels like I’m writing with my left hand. I followed Gia Graham’s Hand Lettering in Procreate Fundamentals, in Skillshare.
