Hello November! 🍂 -> Sketchbook Update and Greetings from Bulgaria ☀️
🕑 Added 2022-11-02 22:12:35 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
Welcome to November 🍂 I hope you’re having a pleasant and calm autumn.
Today I wanted to show you an update of my last sketchbook. I've been trying to draw more from nature lately (Diego that moves all the time) or imagination (simple portraits or just silly doodles) and not use a pencil to sketch, which gives me a lot of satisfaction because I love to learn new things and challenge myself.
Today I am writing to you from Sofia 🇧🇬 I came here with my dad and sister for a few days to visit my family. (For those who don't know, my mum is Polish and my dad is Bulgarian). He had to take care of a few things here, so we spontaneously decided to go with him on a small family trip.
Fall is beautiful and warm here, perfect for walks in nature. We have the opportunity to talk a lot, so I learn more about my family and Bulgaria itself.
Today is All Souls' Day in Poland, and its counterpart in Bulgaria is a holiday that is celebrated in winter and accompanied by the rites with Kukeri. They’re so fun! I found some pictures and drew them today:
I really like their costumes, masks and dance moves 🕺 I think this is a great drawing topic! I am curious if there are similar, interesting holidays in your homeland. Let me know!
Hugs 🤗

Haha that’s true 😅🧡
Thanks for sharing your sketchbook. I love to learn how to draw in ink in near future. Very interesting festival. They could be in Star Wars. 😽❤️
