Day 1: housewarmingbird I'd like to draw something every day of 2020. This bird was given to me as part of a housewarming present and it lives on my fridge. I know that this drawing is not the best, but it is a start. #drawingaday2020 #illustratorsoninstagram

Day 2: giraffy I'd like to draw something every day of 2020. For January I'm doing things I can hold in my hand. Perhaps I need a bigger sketchbook 🙈 This little clay giraffe was made by a friend of mine who has mad fine motor skills 🤯 #drawingaday2020 #illustratorsoninstagram

Day 3: spekboom Have you ever tried to kill a spekboom? They can survive almost anything. May you have the resilience of a spekboom this year 💚 #drawingaday2020 #capetownart

Day 4: teatime This is an antique teacup from my grandparents' house. I suspect I drink far too much tea but, then again, is there anything like a cup of hot tea for countering life's troubles? ☕ #drawingaday2020 #drawdrawdraw #drawnfromlife #teatime #art

Day 6: silver spoon It's quite difficult to draw metal with pencil, as I discovered while trying to draw this antique silver spoon that looks more gold than silver. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Were you born with a silver spoon in your mouth? #drawingaday2020 #privilege #drawnfromlife #spoon #silver

Day 8: don't forget Memory is a tricky thing. I've made false memories and blocked out some memories all together. When packing, I always forget one thing - no matter how many lists I make 🙈 But overall I am so grateful for my memory. In the end, is it not all we have?

Day 12: the one and only 💋 Is it just me, or is it impossible to find your favourite lipstick again once it's finished? I guess they bring out new ranges and force us to try new colours instead...which is probably a good thing? #achangeisasgoodasaholiday
