Hi! My friend is a big fan of your art, and they asked me to ask you for tips on how you draw hair. I'm no artist, so I probably shouldn't be the one to ask these questions, but would you mind sharing a few suggestions? Any pointers about your character designs or your art style would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much, and hope you're having a good day! <3

Hiya!! I tried to breakdown my approach to drawing hair here, but these are by no means hard and fast rules! Hope this helps :)

1: The Hairline

I usually start with the hairline. I like to break it down into 4 main sections, that I can play around with:

  • I like to try to line up the temple section with the ridge of the side plane of the head
  • Try to have the hairline follow the natural flow and planes of the head
  • There's a gap between the hairline and the ear (often it gets covered up by longer strands of hair, but if you're drawing a short cut or pulled back hair, you'll probably see it)

Oh my god your attention to detail is insane!!! I was looking at your divination series and reg without a tie because it’s in James bag??? The subtle detail of Sirius’ boots not being tied up, moony has a mars bar?? Absolutely adore the narrative you add to your work and it definitely doesn’t hurt that your style of drawing is utterly stunning

rules: list five boring facts about yourself

  1. I like to sip my drinks and can make a beverage last all day long.
  2. My favorite emoji is the side eye emoji 👀
  3. I keep approximately 7 million tabs open on my computer and then complain when it runs slow
  4. I like beds that are low to the ground because I'm a restless sleeper and will fall out of bed
  5. I get motion sick if I read or write anything while on a train
