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.
Mountains
Tag: Photodirector
Celtic?
Digital drawing in response to some celtic knot drawings I did thirty or forty years ago. I started with Artrage, then used photodirector app and incollage, finally I used a filter in Instagram. Sketching the patterns was easier for me back in those days, but by using digital technology I can create more complaxity.
Pattern
I do like a pattern, abstract, curves
Colours and shapes
All in a swirl
Like a pine cone
Or succulent
Fibonacci shaped
Helical twisting
Rainbow
Or window
Sweet.
Light
I’ve just been playing with a spiral, like a pine cone. I added light and shade using the eraser tool on my Artrage app, this is the last one which went funny when I edited it on Instagram but looks OK now. There are about five variations using Artrage, photodirector and Instagram to et to this. #bandofsketchers prompt was light.
Playing with filters
I used coloured overlays and an added image of the previous collaged photo on top of this. I like the complexity and that the Christmas tree looks a bit like an insects head.
When I get fed up I like to play with images, creating something new, learning, and keeping myself occupied.
I used the incollage app and photodirector to create this.
Jingle bells
Symmetrical tree with lights and stained glass windows. Still loving playing with photos and art.
In other news I’m lucky to have so many friends. Things are happening and I’m like a boulder in a raging river, being bashed all over the place, but people keep throwing me lifelines and I feel like things should (not saying will) be alright. Meanwhile I have to keep occupied.
Random art
An image of a punk woman came up on my Facebook memories today. I decided to draw another, older profile, thinking of the years that have passed since those days. I had done them both in the Artrage app. I then added texture and an overlay in photodirector. I’m trying to imagine it printed on old newspaper. Whatever I do, I have to draw.
Variations
Using photodirector to alter my painting that I completed today. Photodirector can change the texture and shapes of my paintbrush strokes, adding uniformity and chaos at the same time, while I learn what I like, and which editing tool to use. I gave the original painting away. But at least I have a good photo…
Feet
Foot in leaves, #bandofsketchers prompt was feet for Sunday 11th November 2023. I decided to imagine a foot stepping into crispy dry autumn leaves. Digital drawing done in sketchbook app and photodirector, I used Instagram to improve the colours.
Fashion
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was fashion. I’m at a loss with this so I just did a digital finger painting of a woman in a dress using my Artrage app. Then I used photodirector app to change the texture and background to make it more graphic.
