last things and other things.

Your birds are especially well done Joe, and I like all these later ones. The giraffe is great too.

 

[joe1It]

Snoball, thank you very much, I really appreciate it, I'm glad you liked them.

 

[joe1It]

Snoball,Ayin, today i tried to draw a face.
Tried as I normally do, but using 2 levels and then zooming in a little and then trying out the color a little bit

Iain ,thanks very much

I like both the sketch and the coloring. The strands of hair add a nice depth to the picture.

Thanks very much Joe. It is a pleasure to see this drawing. I particularly like the birds and the giraffe, too. I don't know the differences between using the iPad and pen/paper, but, judging by the above, it doesn't appear to hinder.

Reference. I hope this makes sense.



Took me years to discover that.

Rcleary thank you very much, glad you liked it, thank you for your impression on the hair strands,
which is also useful as a reminder.


Iain thank you very much, I'm glad you liked them, I'm glad you think this about the result of the digital drawings. about the screen I think that after the first attempts, initial oddity, after a while you get used to it. I think it is also helping me as a stimulus, to start putting the references close to the drawing space and in the last 2 days try to put the tablet and me in a more comfortable position.

Love that giraffe!

 

[joe1It]

Ayin, thank you very much, glad you like it

when I chose the photo and started drawing it I was not welcomed, but he looks a lot like the dog we had when I was born, he was a few months old, we were both puppies, he lived about 13 years I think, sometimes we played football, him he has always been good to me, I am not always to him, perhaps in childhood he was the one who taught me the most.

he was all brown like the dog in the picture but his name was black

 

[joe1It]

I also made these, all from photos except the chair and eeyore

 

[joe1It]

thanks Ayin.

thanks for seeing.
I drew two lemons, that is, the same lemon from life 2 times.
I tried to color one, maybe, I have to do shorter, simpler attempts, of the exercises before trying to color a drawing. see, read better tutorials, books.
seen some tutorials, read some, but basically those always at random.

while yesterday morning I had tried some faces from photos, like caricature.

I think I have to find a comfortable position so as not to strain my wrist too much, 5 years ago I bought a table easel, it is really very comfortable for the back, only it has 2 positions, both very vertical, for the writing grip maybe it's not very comfortable, sometimes it takes me a lbro to raise it just a little bit, maybe I have to try to put something in it to find a comfortable corner.

 

[joe1It]

thanks Ayin

 

[joe1It]

Happy Easter to all.
