grumpy bear


this bear drawing was done on Autodesk sketchbook and I liked added feeling into the bears face. I worked hard to add texture to him to make him look really soft and cuddly.

tulip pattern


At A-level, I focused on patterns in nature for a whole year. since then, I have been slightly obsessed with  drawing nature especially in the form of a repeating pattern. this is mostly me just experimenting more on Autodesk sketchbook and finding the right tools for me.

eurovision


Its almost time for my second favourite time of year (after Christmas), its Eurovision  week!!!!! watching Eurovision has always been one of my favourite things to do with my family and has becoming quite a big tradition. this illustration was drawn for my sister to be her twitter profile picture during Eurovision week as she is an even bigger fan than me. this illustration was done with watercolours and fine liner on watercolour paper.

hello


since I have actually started posting some what regularly, I wanted to introduce myself a little more.

 My name is Charlotte Whiteing and I am an illustrator and designer from England. I am currently studying illustration at the University of Huddersfield in Yorkshire. As an artist, I tend to focus a lot on work aimed towards children with cute and playful designs, this passion for children's work will hopefully allow me to illustrate for children's books in the future.

As well as children's drawings, I make and design a lot of greetings cards for friends and family. Soon I plan on getting some of my cards professionally printed so I can sell them (if this interests you comment on this post or message me on my social media!!).

I mostly use watercolours and fine liner pens for my illustrations as I love the effect I can get with them. Recently, I have been experimenting with digital using Autodesk sketchbook on my laptop as I want to improve digital skills a lot as I know it is very for commercial work which I hope to do more of in the future. The self portrait above in an example of my recent digital experimentations. I am also a very big fan of different printing techniques like lino and Risograph as I like the more individual style of each print.

I hope this lets you get to know me a little more and if you ever have any questions, don't hesitate to ask in the comments on my posts or any of my social media accounts.
