Welcome to September 2022. This month is special because it’s my Fathers and Grandmothers birthday. My Grandmother is the same age as the late Queen. Congrats!

June 2022

Hello and Welcome to artwork of June 2022. This month I did something I have not done in many years - draw from the reddit sketchdaily subreddit.
