| 1. Challenges - new month means a lot of new challenges, this is Buttercups for TheTuesdayCollective, Robin for Doodlewash, Pastel Pigeon (Treron Vernans) for Alliteration April and Tomato Frog from FrogApril. This is an A5 ink and copic marker drawing. |
| 8. Scribbled pony - this is what I saw in the monthly scribble for ScribbleIntoArt (well, first I saw a face but I didn't want to draw that), done in Procreate |
| 3. Chill Cheetah - This is an oil painting on a 20x20 wood panel. |
| 11. Grape Hyacinth - this is an ink, then watecolour and then watercolour pencil A5 painting |
| 14. Black-eared Wheatear - for the TuesdayCollective bird week, this drawing is made from start to finish using 4-colour BIC pens (standard, pastel and sun) on A5 paper |
| 16. Caterpillar - when I explored caterpillars for the TuesdayCollective, I found the Saddleback Caterpillar that really reminded me of the classic Swedish pastry; Punchrulle. The caterpillar is stinging and poisonous, so be careful when you do the FIKA. This is a digital drawing done in Procreate. |
| 19. Pineapple Frog - also called the Albino Pacman Frog. For FrogApril2026. This was first a pencil drawing, then a watercolour and then I added: black ink, acrylic and copic markers. On A4 smooth watercolour paper. |
| 25. Mango Frog - I made this as a dessert using the Miniverse molds. For FrogApril2026. |
| 26. Colorful cows - for Alliteration April. This is an A5 ink and copic marker drawing. |
| 28. Red Junglefowl - the wild ancestor of domesticated chickens. Ink with watercolour and then I added white pencil and copic markers. On A4 smooth watercolour paper. |
| 29. Strawberry Frog - another one made using the Miniverse molds. For FrogApril2026. |
