It’s gotten a bit cold downstairs where my main drawing setup is, so I’ve been noodling on iPad upstairs in the comfort of heater and couch. Here’s a drawing of train in a cityscape. When I was a little kid I lived near a train track so my mom used to take me to see the trains. I loved them so much as a kid, and my dream back then was to become a train conductor XD
Happy New Year! I got an iPad Pro for this Christmas so I’ve been making paintings on Procreate lately. Here’s some of the first paintings. They were so much fun and I can’t wait to do more!
After attending the great Robh Ruppel’s workshop recently I was motivated to do observational paintings. So I grabbed my Ipad2 (which I only use to play games and browse these days) and started noodling away! I discovered the joy in going out for outdoor painting. While it’s much challenging capturing the ever changing light, and not to mention fighting with the massive glare from the screen, there’s the reward of getting out and breathing fresh(er than indoor) air. These locations include: my living room, my work, Malibu hike, and Griffith Park. The paintings are done in Procreate and my finger. So far this has been a good way for me to take break from my day work so I hope I can keep this up!
Painted this iPad piece on the bus ride home from ICON7. I saw this view through the window on the highway and somehow it stuck with me so I decided to let it out. This was my second year attending ICON as a student volunteer and I had just as much if not more fun this year. It was really great getting to hang out with fellow MICA buddies as well as new friends we made, talking with the professional artists, and listening them talk. I also got to be time keeper for all of the stage talks so I made signs that says 10 min left or time's up and running around the front of stage and such. A pretty cool experience :)
I'm attending ICON7 this week and because of my duties I may be slow at updating this week. This is a small iPad sketch I did last night with drawing app procreate. The app has powerful brush options that allows for custom brush capabilities. Ill keep it coming
