Today's Februdoodle illustration comes with a couple of misfires at the beginning. I had sushi for lunch, so I wanted to draw something related to that, but the first and second sketches were just not what I wanted. I ended up drawing a sushi roll in an isometric view, but it took a long time to get there.

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for linework, and the Fat Nozzle spray paint brush for background texture.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Here’s a Februdoodle illustration to help you celebrate! ❤️

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Syrup brush for linework, the Inka brush for some fancy outlines, and the Fat Nozzle spray paint brush for background texture. I'm posting each finished illustration at my website.

I wanted to do something a little more focused for today's Februdoodle illustration - and I was looking for a chance to use the Inka brush again - so here's a "still life" of some tortilla chips! 🤤

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for linework and detailing, the Hartz brush for some quick chip texture, and the Fat Nozzle spray paint brush for background texture.

Today's Februdoodle illustration goes just a little psychedelic. Probably would've been better with a little more detail, but I kinda like the chunkiness of it. It almost seems cozy, even with the snow!

Today's Februdoodle illustration is a little basic, but I've got kind of a busy week ahead of me, so I didn't want to stay up super late working on something. I like making graphic images like this though, so I consider it a small success nonetheless.

This is my tenth illustration for Februdoodle, featuring my son's second-favorite stuffed animal, Maximus, having a cup of picnic coffee. Don't question it! 😆

Here's today's Februdoodle illustration!

More adventures in trying to keep things a little loose and not getting caught up in how perfect/geometric everything is. And what better subject for that than a street? It sounds like a joke, but in reality, streets are very imperfect, and drawing them that way makes them look more realistic. I still hate drawing cars, though...

Anyway, this was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching and the Inka brush for everything else.

Just under the wire, here's my eighth illustration for Februdoodle!

I've been watching a lot of Curious George - it's my son's favorite TV show right now - and I've grown to love that cartoon. The animation is good, the voice acting is great, the stories are fun, and there are a lot of silly jokes. But one thing my wife pointed out is that every time they show George sleeping in his bed, he looks super comfy, and now I always notice it too. And envy it a little! 😆

So anyway, I was feeling inspired by that, and wanted to draw a big ol' bear having a good rest today. I meant for it to be something kind of simple, and as usual, got a little carried away with it. I'm really happy with how it turned out though!

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Syrup brush for linework, and the Soft airbrush for a few bits of light shading.

Here's my seventh Februdoodle illustration for this year! That marks the end of the first week already - yikes!

This one was inspired by a craft project my son did at a local art museum. I have it hanging on the wall of my office, and with all the rain happening here lately, I thought it'd be fun to see it in use. Of course, a little magic is involved with artifacts like this! 😉

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for linework, the Soft air brush for some slight shading, and the Splatter and Flicks spray paint brushes for background texture.
