Lili Damita
Surfin’ the tube and came across an old movie, Captain Blood, starring Errol Flynn. He was one of my favorite actors so I looked him up on the internet. In that search I discovered Lili Damita, one of his three wives. Watched the movie with my iPad in my lap and started this sketch. I didn’t get through and after a slew of interruptions I finally finished it after several days.

Girl in Orange Line with Colors
Experimenting on my iPad Pro. This started with a simple line drawing in orange. Next I widened the lines in different colors on back layers. Then I played with the brush tools. Then I got bored and stopped. This is where I stopped.

Careless Claudia
When I watch TV or a movie I often get curious about the actors. Sometimes actors from days past, sometimes up and coming ones. So I look them up on the internet. I came across an interesting photo of Claudia Cardinale and had the urge to do a “pencil” drawing of her on my iPad Pro.

ID
I’ve been having technology issues. Apparently, Wacom doesn’t have a driver upgrade for my ancient model. I guess I’ll go tablet shopping. In the meantime, I’ve been experimenting. I drew a cartoon on my iPad Pro using Adobe Sketch. I sent it to Photoshop on my iMac desktop Photoshop. After doing the basic color I sent it back to my iPad Pro to work on the shading. Finally, I sent it back to my desktop to crop and finalize. I’ve already learned several things not to do. It has a different look than my usual cartoons.

Colored Bubbles
Piddlin’ on the iPad. Just as I started on the sketch I wondered what it would like on black instead of white. So I switched. I discovered it loses a lot when viewed small so be sure and click to enlarge.
