New paintings and regular art updates.
Watching the film Seabiscuit on the TV. I decided to try and draw a horse so I used Artrage to draw it, then I edited it in Instagram and also Photodirector apps. It’s a bit smudgy and indistinct but I quite like it. I drew the mane blowing in the wide and it’s tail up in the air. Brown with a white blaze on his nose. Digital drawing.
Trying to line up the features I have been drawing recently. Looks like an identifit photo! The nose and mouth were a bit big so I had to shrink them down, I used my incollage app on my phone to line the images up.
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was eyes. Well I had a go, digital drawing with a stylus. Eyes drawn on my Artrage app. I’m shaking a bit much to get a neat image. I used various pen and smudge tools to get a softer image but I want to try and do some real painting and drawing soon if I can overcome my shaking.
#bandofsketchers prompt was pink, Following on from my nose drawing, here’s some pink lips x not brilliant, maybe I should have drawn flowers. I’ve tried to be accurate but I think I’ve created a trout pout! Anyway it’s drawn in the Artrage app on my phone.
Hitting my head against a brick wall. My world feels like a ton of bricks has landed on my head or I’ve run slap bang into a brick wall. Lots of things have been going wrong and I know I must break through the wall but it’s hard. Health, family, finances, I have been feeling down but I know I must continue to fight if I’m going to succeed and survive. I think I’m probably being bit too open here but I’m going to share these thoughts elsewhere too.
#bandofsketchers prompt was corner, digital doodle in Artrage then photodirector apps. Abstract image based an a view through a window.
Purple mountain #bandofsketchers prompt was mountain, I drew this in Artrage app then adjusted it in photodirector. I must get back to real drawing soon.
Catching up with #bandofsketchers prompts. This one was tube. I suppose a tap is a sort of tube? I decided to imagine a tap filling a glass for this prompt. Another Artrage app drawing, instead of looking at a photo I’m stretching my imagination, trying o think where reflections would be.
Yellow vase, imagined drawing in Artrage app. My mom used to collect vases made out of Uranium glass. It’s called that because it uses Uranium to colour the glass. It can glow in he dark I think? It’s usually a cloudy greenish yellow. #bandofsketchers prompt was yellow.
I haven’t been doing #bandofsketchers prompts for some time. Well it’s abut time I joined in again and since it’s just after Easter I thought I would draw a boiled egg. Drawn in Artrage with metallic and non metallic pens. Prompt was breakfast.
