I love the new style!!! It's gorgeous, and the soft effect of the charcoal works so well for the tone of the scene.

oh i am OBSESSED with this new art style! and do i spy these two acting more romantic towards each other at last? i’m so curious to see what this shift in dynamic will bring!

on a side note, congratulations on your new name!! i recently got my boyfriend (who is also trans and a Holmes fan) hooked on Watson’s Sketchbook, and both of us were super excited for you when we saw your name change announcement on Instagram. you’re the coolest, Lee! 💖

Ooh I like how soft and dreamy this looks. Almost gauzy, very plush. It feels exactly like waking up next to someone warm and snuggling in. It’s just coming out of winter here; I can really relate to the contrast of those cool very early mornings and hot cups of tea and the comfort of a warm cuddly person you love. It’s beautifully drawn.

And also congratulations on the name and pronoun change!! Lee is such a great name (and one of my all time favorites). I can just imagine how satisfyingly loopy the signature would be! My daughter (also a fan!) and I spent a minute chatting about how names are gifts that we can always stop using if they don’t work for us anymore. It made my mother-heart so happy to see you beaming in your instagram post. 🥹
