On Paper, Canvas, and iPad
Since returning to using more of my traditional art media, I’m really enjoying the interplay between working both, off screen and on screen - reminds me of Star trek terminology - such as: catching a pencil sketch with the “Scanner Pro” app, playing about with it in an art app... printing it... then perhaps applying...

I began with watercolour on paper, then whisked away some areas with the eraser set on Gesinski ink, in the Procreate app. Ideally more white paper should be left showing in the first place! I also dabbed on a bit more colour here and there, while in the app. I think my tinkering with it successfully... Continue Reading →
A Watercolour on Fabriano 300gsm %100 cold pressed, cotton paper. It’s about 2 .5 inches by 3.5 inches (6cm x 9cm) in size... I often enjoy working within a small format. This is the size of ACEO art cards; popular with some artists. I scanned it into the iPad with the “Scanner Pro” app. Then printed... Continue Reading →
I painted this with Sennelier watercolour, on Strathmore hot pressed %100 cotton paper. It’s approx. 7cm (3”) x 10.5 cm (4”) in size. I began with a scratching of blue coloured pencil; and then put a little coloured pencil over the watercolour as well. I love miniatures in art, and words - a lot can... Continue Reading →
Another one for my flower series. A while back, I painted this in an app called, “Art Rage”. I’ve printed it onto a lovely %100 cotton paper, and added it to my art I have for sale in my local area. I have some small art card prints, and may eventually add a few small... Continue Reading →

After an intensive time (I’m not one to do things by half measures) with iPad art in these past few years, it was a bit strange to be dipping brushes into water,... Continue Reading →
*Back here posting in late Feb 2018. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! A scan of linocut print from quite a few years ago. Added a touch more work in “Procreate”, and put on the words in the “Phonto” app. Decided it looked fine without colour. I’ve printed some cards from the scan. Thank... Continue Reading →
A print from a work I began on canvas a little while back. I scanned it into the iPad, and added to it (freehand) using a little art app media in “Procreate”. Then put a little watercolour and gouache onto the print. I knew I wanted to do further work on the print, so I... Continue Reading →
