Procreate Sketch 2021

There was a period after I got my Ipad that I used Procreate quite a lot. The applicaiton is extremely powerful and certainly something that can be used professionally, a very good alternative to Photoshop. But after a while I of course once again went back to Photoshop where everything is familiar. This is a fairly rare experiment where I wanted to sketch in Procreate sometime in 2018. I didn't have anything in mind, just sat down and started drawing things.

It makes a buzzing sound!

This fairy was painted as a demo on stream for about an hour in 2021. While not being an actual speed painting, this is about as speedpainty as I go... No refs were used, matter of fact I didn't even know what I was going to paint when we started, but it was February... so it descended into a Faebruary sketch. The entire thing was done in Photoshop.

A Dark World

This is a digital painting which was done in 2016 but then beefed up in Procreate sometime in 2018. My goal when I created this was to illustrate a fantasy landscape, with strange land shapes and a sense of mystery. The mage character is inspired by the video game Magika, and is featured in quite a few of my sketches where I like to add a figure for scale.

Fantasy Landscape - Brush Test 2021

This is the result of a photoshop brush test.  Sometimes I like to try other people's brush packs and to just figure out what each of the brushes does I take it for a test drive.  When I started this I had no plan in terms of what I was going to draw, just made some shapes with the brushes, eventually something started looking like a tree and off we went... I actually love this process of painting, and some of my best works have come out this way.

Cheers!
