My Sketchbook Journal: My Dream on a Mountain Top

I am back with another entry for the SketchQuest drawing contest hosted by Hive account@quatro. This time I decided to try something a little different from my usual characters. Instead of a person, I drew a place I’ve been dreaming about lately which is living on top of a mountain in a small house, surrounded by green grass and tall trees.

I must admit, I am really sticking with this loose style on purpose. I used the same PenUp app and that one fountain pen brush that I like so much. I didn't use any reference photo for this as I was just thinking about a very calm, late afternoon where the clouds and the horizon turn into those beautiful pink and orange colors. I think the uneven lines from the brush help make the clouds look more fluffy and natural as well as creating rough shadows on the ground and grass.

It is unbelievably relaxing to just sit and draw what you are dreaming about and despite my shaky hands I think that fact adds to the hand-drawn feeling that I want. I prefer my art to look human, especially with so much AI art being shared nowadays. This is just a simple, calming picture of my dream home.

Thank you to Hive account@quatro for hosting this activity on our small creative community the Draw A Day fam. I’m having so much fun exploring what I can do with just one brush and my imagination. I can't wait to see the other entries for this week. Good luck to everyone and I hope the others will join too.

I want to thank all of you for your ongoing support and for taking the time to explore my digital sketchbook here on Hive. Your encouragement fuels my passion for art, and I'm thrilled to have you as part of this journey.

If you'd like to stay connected and see more of my art, I invite you to join our Draw A Day community It's where I predominantly share my art and engage with fellow artists. Thank you and see you in the next post
