Two-and-a-half-minute video. Today I finished my drawing of Bubbles from the Powerpuff Girls, and it’s my best drawing yet!

Two-minute video. To practice drawing accurate proportions, I drew Bubbles from the Powerpuff Girls. As you’ll see in the introduction, I’ve always loved Bubbles — maybe a little too much!

Two-minute video on how I drew a penguin. The penguin was cute, but the drawing was pretty bad. That’s OK, though; I just wanted to get some practice using shapes and shading techniques.
