New paintings and regular art updates.
Doodle of faces in profile and full face. Artrage doodled finger painting. I like adding layers and this app has different pens. I the past I just used the free Artrage oils app which just had synthetic oil paint texture, but this has spray paint, glitter, various other pens and brushes. It’s fun to use. You can also add metallic touches.
Love a cat doodle done in Artrage app x
I wanted to draw him facing e but he was too busy looking at something else…
Semi abstract digital drawing with the Artrage app. I wanted to fry and create an idea of the air currents that happen when you are breathing. This was a finger drawing rather than using a stylus. I haven’t been doing much recently.
I’ve found my favourite tweak in Photodirector after losing it for a bit. There were added tools and some of them have been relabled so it took me a while of looking through things to find the texture tools somewhere I wasn’t expecting. The original drawing on the left was done in Artrage oils app 7 years ago.
Comes to something when you are so tired after “another sleepless night”, that you end up doodling about it. At almost 6am.
I used my Artrage app to do it and the various brushes to get different looks. I didn’t blur anything together so it looks quite graphic/illustrative. I’m please the blue stands out against the flood filled black.
Why am I awake? Aches, tremors, too hot or cold, also hungry as I missed a few meals with a stomach bug. Urgh.
Artrage sketch from 5 years ago. I was learning how to use Artrage which I had bought recently and was experimenting with colours, metallic backgrounds and textures. I quite like the watercolour effect that seemed almost analogue.
Playing, digital drawing, trying to add colour and using symmetrical mirrors images.
I’ve had to delete several images again as I don’t have enough memory to keep all of them. If you find some of my blogs without a picture, that’s why!
Playing with illustration ideas. If you mirror image half a picture you can create completely different faces. Asymmetry and Symmetry. Artrage app.
When you look at a real face it can be lopsided. Often one eye will be higher up than the other. The underlying skull can be lopsided too. This can be because one side of a brain may be more dominant than the other. I’m not sure of the actual physiological causes of this. I could find out, but just enjoyed experimenting with the original drawing. X
I went to my art group for mental wellbeing this morning and decided on the way home because the weather is sunny and burning hot. So I went shopping to save having to go out again later. While I was in the supermarket I treated myself to a chocolate frappachino? Is that what it’s called (milkshake) it was so cold I got real brain freeze! (drawn in Artrage app).
It’s about 30°C outside and I was in the car which was incredibly hot. No air conditioner so I had the windows wide open. I was so tired and overheated when I got home I’ve just come in and kicked my shoes off. Now for a rest!
#bandofsketchers prompt was flag, just experimenting with digital textures. I used Artrage for this with a slight metallic tinge. It’s not very exciting but I’m trying to drag myself back into doing art.
