As some of you may know, I studied an worked as interior designer for a long time. Before starting my career as a freelance illustrator I did some collaborations with other designers and architects and a couple of projects of my own. And I still work as interior designer from time to time, when a collaboration or a project appears on my way.⠀ ⠀ The last few months, I've been very busy with several interior design projects and I'm pretty obsessed with furniture, decoration and all that stuff :) ((( By the way! If you like design and decor, take a look to my other account @thewhiteinterior )))⠀ ⠀ So yes, that's why I've been painting some iconic icons that I personally love. Like the Barcelona chair by Mies van der Rohe⠀ ⠀ #iconicdesign ⠀ ⠀ 154/365⠀ ⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #painting #watercolor #paint #ink #sketch #watercolour #instaart #draw #sketchbook #barcelonachair #miesvanderrohe #artoftheday #arte #aquarelle #artistic #sillabarcelona #instaartist #watercolorpainting #contemporaryart #inkpainting #blackpainting #minimalpainting #minimalart #fineart #interiordesign #design #iconicfurniture (at London, United Kingdom)

* Follow your light, go outside and fly *⠀ ⠀ I know this picture has nothing to do with my paintings and illustrations and everything that I've been posting until now. However, it has a lot to do with me and where I am right now.⠀ ⠀ This idea came to me while I was thinking about future projects and I couldn't help myself of doing it. ⠀ ⠀ I do this kind of things to reconnect to myself. They help me to understand me better. When I feel lost or stressed and I need to rethink something, this is the best way of doing it. And I wanted to share it with you, in case you could find any inspiration on it.⠀ ⠀ 148/365⠀ ⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #wings #watercolor #plants #cuttedpaper #picoftheday #thenativecreative #justforfun #momentsofmine #ourplayfulstyle #littlestoriesofmylife #lifewellcaptured #hurrayforplay #momentslikethese #makemoments #painting #creativeprocess #inspirational #thingsthatmakemehappy (at London, United Kingdom)

I finally didn't add anything else, just a few more brushstrokes, but didn't want to loose the brightness! 🍃 ⠀ ⠀ 144/364⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #sketch #painting #watercolor #draw #sketchbook #instaart #watercolour #illustration #leaves #portrait #portraiture #nature #plants #portraitmood #paint #aquarelle #artoftheday #instaartist #dibujo #ink #makeportraits #watercolorpainting #illustrator #arte #portraitpainting #artistic #paintings #figurativeart (at London, United Kingdom)

Experimenting with more water than usual... that makes the portrait ethereal and "loose", don't you think? ⠀ ⠀ 140/365⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #painting #watercolor #paint #sketch #watercolour #instaart #draw #watercolorportrait #portraits #sketchbook #pencil #paintings #portraiture #artoftheday #portraitpage #portraitmood #arte #aquarelle #artistic #instaartist #makeportraits #watercolorpainting #contemporaryart #figurative #watercolor #portrait #waterblog #watercolorpainting #portraitart #illustration (at London, United Kingdom)

Some of you have asked about tutorials, and I want to create some for you guys... but I don't really know how to start! ⠀ ⠀ So I need a bit of help before doing them! What kind of tutorial would you like to see? Portrait, figure, hands, parts of the face...? Pencil, watercolour, mixed media..? And is it better step by step, tips, video of the process...? As you see, lots of questions, lots of doubts! ⠀ Give me some ideas of what you'd like to see and know more about!! :) ⠀ 137/365⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #art #illustration #painting #sketch #watercolor #portrait #portraitpainting #artstudio #portraiture #retrato #red #study #artist #instaart #creative #sketching #portraitsketch #arttutorial #createeveryday (at London, United Kingdom)

Work in progress! I'm enjoying so much using all these colours 🍃 Do you think is too much colour? Or do you like it?
