Another doodle

And now I’ve tried doodling in another app. This is meant to be an Elf? I guess for Christmas. I can draw faces from life and from photos . But from my imagination? I’m out of practice, especially on digital devices. I quite like this, its in the ArtRage app and I like the metallic effect you can get. But again, I’m lacking in knowledge of how it works, I’m not proficient yet.

Does anyone like drawing digitally? Have you got any tips or have I got to go and look at a lot of YouTube videos to learn? I ask because I learn by playing, but then don’t know basic skills like how to use layers in photoshop properly….

Punk

Memory of the 1970’s and 80’s. The punk era. Digital drawing done on the sketcher free app. I drew this three years ago so I don’t remember it much. Found on my Facebook memories….

Another day, another zoom

The days flash by

Rushing past

Flying by

Moving so fast

Day and night

Are gone

in no time

Zooming

Into another meeting!

Pens all over the floor!

What happens when your hubby decides to get an adult colouring book… I don’t mind, but does everything have to get spread over the floor? Also I wish he would get his own. I use these for my art course. I asked him how he thought I would feel if he’d tipped all my oil paints lying all over the floor!

Rocking horse

Digital sketch. Rocking horse. Using a drawing app, then playing with it to try and make it look like a linocut print. I tried changing the background colours and textures to see what it would look like if it were printed on different papers.

Faces

I did this drawing in an app called sketcher that I used to use a lot on my tablet, but when I got a new phone I found I was creating a lot of things on it and neglecting some of the apps on other devices. Having too many choices or just lucky to have them? But I do need to try and keep my hand in with other apps.

She’s lovely

And cute,

And weird

And wary.

her eyes are bright

As shiny buttons

She jumps and leaps

With mad exuberance.

Behind the tv

Up the curtains

Racing upstairs

Before you can say go!

Wash your hands

Digital art I did in 2003. It feels very appropriate for the current situation. It’s based on a photocopy of my hand and then I put it through photoshop to add interesting colours and textures. It is called lifeline and it’s on my mantlepiece. I might try and do something else like this….

Time to draw or paint square 6.

I’m doing a collaboration with the Orme art group. I have already done square 2, not very well, but I’ve also volunteered to do square 6 too. Today I went out and got some new permanent markers and some gel pens, so I will try and come up with a copy of the image. It’s a painting by Bonnard, but I can’t remember the title.

We have already done copies of a Picasso, a Monet, and a Matisse if I remember rightly. Fingers crossed 🤞

Playing

The ooutdoor cat is mostly in now. He’s Bern in for about four hours tonight.

He is getting happier. He plays like a kitten! It’s like he’s gone back to being a young cat, not a slightly scruffy middle aged cat. His coat is shiny, and the scratches he had on his nose have almost healed up.

By the way if you want to read a bit more about him, there is a short piece I wrote about him at the Katzenworld blog here at WordPress. He was featured today on their web page.
