Todays #bandofsketchers prompt was regeneration /renaissance. I could have done Dr Who for regeneration. But we took a friend over to the Thai Temple at King’s Bromley because it is the Thai New year. I decided to draw this Buddhistic statue as it is about regeneration in a way?

Another of my Sketchfu digital drawings. One of the things was a challenge to copy a photo just by drawing it. I think that’s what this one was. I wish I knew which pottery made the tea service. X

Breath of fire
Or stream of ice?
Steam and fumes
Fierce or nice?
What is a dragon?
A friend or foe
Mythological
How can we know?
Genetic reboot
Turn into something new.
Evil or good?
What could be true?

I’ve been working on my MA project Al day and it’s driving me mad. I have one image that will save as a .Tif file but not as a .Jpeg, no matter what I do I get a notification that the file is not supported or something. All the rest are fine. I have both sorts of files so I can put them into a website that will print a one off book for you! Argh!

Another late night experiment. I added the pink and red this morning, when I could see their colours clearly. Drawing under electric light means colours are not as easily perceived. The yellow cast of the light made it hard to decide what colours were on the felt pens. Pinks and oranges looked very similar. Why hearts? Just because the shapes I had drawn suggested them and I wanted a soft contrast to the strong black and white shapes.

Colours, blue and yellow, digital drawing and manipulation. Shaded, flood fill in places, used sketch, layout and photodirector apps. I like building up different layers and effects.

Another drawing, Earth and Moon, drawn at Sketchfu. My interests in science and astronomy are shown here. Also trying to render the appearance of cloudscape from space. The website was simple, four or five sized circular brushes, opacity and transparency, a basic pallette and a colour picker and eraser. Not much more. But lots of people, artists, writers, enjoyed the site. It just got too big, wasn’t monetised, and the owners decided to move on to something else. I miss it. X

I found some more Sketchfu drawings that I drew on my computer years ago. I’d forgotten about them. Thank goodness for Facebook memories. Glad I’ve got them. I will post a few more on the next few days x

Drawing I did at an old website called Sketchfu nine years ago. Sadly it closed down a few years ago. The tools were very simple, but that made it easy for artists to use. I was pleased how this digital sketch came out. If I find more drawings I will share them.
