Open licenced artwork by William Mckee

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. When I use to live in Wellington and attend art school there, I would use the subreddit to pratice my digital drawing. In more recent months I have found it hard to find things to draw, so a prompt helps. Enjoy.

Here are 4 strips of comic:
