Happy Easter friends! How will you be spending it this year? Chocolates and eggs, pickled fish and hotcross buns? 🍫🥚🍳🍞 Or does it mean something more to you? 🐇🐰 . . Flashback to this beautiful painting created a few years back - it's been a tough few months, so I'm extremely grateful for this day off to spend time with my family whilst remembering the price that was paid for my freedom so long ago... #blessed #grateful ❤❤❤ . . . #painting #illustration #fineart #easter #digitalart #HappyEaster #HeHasRisen #crossequalslove #Saviour #Eggs #Rabbit #Landscape #beauty #Hope #artistsoninstagram #artmotive #Christianity #autodesksketchbook #wacom #Capetown #southafrica #ArtofTambles #artgalleryhq #artsupporters #huffpostarts #contemporary — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2J77w7W

An unfinished painting from a few years back - It was initially titled "Purple Galaxy", but now I'm getting more of a "Tear In My Heart" vibe... Acrylic paint on canvas with a few digital touch ups to make it feel more alive. Apologies for the lack of posts lately - been dealing with a minor back injury and a nasty flu 😭 - but the show must go on! . . . #wip #beauty #painting #illustration #landscape #Capetown #SouthAfrica #galaxy #cosmos #digitalart #artistsoninstagram #sketchoftheday #artgalleryhq #huffpostarts #dopeblackart #artoftambles #fineart #contemporary #johannesburg #designer #cosmic #milkyway #acrylic #canvas #transformationtuesday #abstractart #adventure #outdoors — view on Instagram http://ift.tt/2FF25f4

Friday Feels... Quick little sketch inspired by pretty boy @dylanhasselbaink 😊 🙌 I decided to take the day off from doing commissions to recover from a back injury. 😔 Promised myself I'd finish a sketch a day though so here you have it! 🎨 . . . #sketch #drawing #illustration #curls #natural #melanin #beauty #model #art #digitalart #Capetown #fineart #malemodel #SouthAfrica #portrait #sketchoftheday #Amsterdam #Fashion #denim #European #artoftambles #huffpostarts #fanart #dopeblackart — view on Instagram http://ift.tt/2CHAerS

Testing out my ink game! 😊 I've been shying away from traditional sketches lately due to last year's hand injury, but I'm slowly getting back into it, despite how shaky and shoddy my line work still is. 🙈 #workinprogress . . . #sketch #illustration #doodle #digitalart #artoftambles #eye #southafrica #drawing #model #eyedrawing #artist #thirdeye #capetown #artistsoninstagram #womancrush #sketchoftheday #wcw #fineart #masterpiece #inked #ink #graphite #artgalleryhq #huffpostarts — view on Instagram http://ift.tt/2EI8IQR

Lunchtime sketch of the beautiful, fearless @nobuhle1 😊 ❤ I remember being forced to watch the local SA TV series, 7de laan, by my teachers as a kid - so that I could learn to speak Afrikaans more fluently. It ended up becoming a much-loved tradition in my home, and to this day, no evening is complete without it. 😊 Any way, here's to one of my favourite characters, "Aggie". 😊 I simply love drawing these black and white portraits - there's something so elegant and honest about it. . . . #beauty #illustration #portrait #sketch #Capetown #SouthAfrica #african #queen #melanin #7delaan #actress #plussize #painting #digitalart #artistsoninstagram #sketchoftheday #artgalleryhq #huffpostarts #dopeblackart #artoftambles #fineart #contemporary — view on Instagram http://ift.tt/2ogoOWD

"Turn your face toward the sun, let the shadows fall behind you..." 🎶 Late night portrait study - inspired by my favourite Italian photographer @alessioalbi ♥ I simply love how he captures natural light and uses it to add intrigue to his beautiful atmospheric portraits. 😍 When I use images for reference, I always make sure to never copy them exactly, but use the creation and thought process behind it to feed my creativity and thought process - even at 3 in the morning! . . . #inspired #illustration #fineart #beauty #freckles #model #portrait #light #CapeTown #SouthAfrica #photography #Italy #autodesksketchbook #artsy #art #digitalart #artgalleryhq #huffpostarts #painting #artistsoninstagram — view on Instagram http://ift.tt/2EMOfJz

Another flashback to a logo I created in 2016 for The Make-up Issue beauty school in Cape Town. I remember this being during a very rough time for me and I completely forgot to follow up with the client after sending the final draft through - but it felt great checking their website years later and seeing this beautiful lady up there doing her thing. 😊 . . It's been hard trying to juggle my personal life, my health, a stressful 9-5 as an Analyst, and my art passion on the side. But I've always been a fighter and have always pulled-through. . . I'm so grateful to be able to pursue my dreams now and truly appreciate all the love and support I've been getting! 😊 ♥ ♥ ♥ . . . #illustration #sketch #beauty #mua #mui #makeup #logo #art #artistsoninstagram #model #bluehair #artist #graphicdesign #Capetown #southafrica #fbf #flashbackfriday #artoftambles #luxe #fashion #glamour #blogger #branding — view on Instagram http://ift.tt/2C132PX
