A5 Owl Journal

A month ago I was asked to design and make a journal as a present for a lovely lady's boyfriend. She wanted it to be A5 in size and have an embroidered owl underneath the flap, so the owl would be a surprise. I enjoyed making this journal so much and was very glad to hear she liked it too!

My second commissioned portrait sketch

I just completed my second commissioned portrait sketch (1st picture). It was quite hard to see all the details on the photo as it was blurred but I'm happy with how it looked in the end. The second picture (guy with scarf)was the first one I did and that I also blogged about it a while back.

Both are pencil on paper.
