Gone digital – Updates Round Three (fight!)

Many of my recent works, due to moves and other hindrances, have been digital works.  Here are just a small selection of my recent sketches.  These are all done on the ipad prowith the Apple pencil.  I enjoy it almost as much as Wacom – there is just a hint of lag that differentiates the two, but it’s not enough to bother me.

A study of a Sargent study 😉

A study of the Bouguereau at the Getty Center.  My favorite piece in the museum, and a stunning, rich display of light and perfect drawing.  What a master.  We can all nearn a lot from him.
