Maple Leaf created in Tayasui Sketches Pro sometime ago. Slight editing in Procreate.

Dark-eyed Junco done with water live brushes and a few others in Adobe Fresco.

Quick digital sketch done in Procreate that began life as a scribble seen in upper left.

A quick piece of forest and mountain ranges done in Procreate on a rainy day.

"Mythical Creature" (2022) Another mythical animal created in Procreate. Repurposed a palm tree from an earlier piece. It is overworked and I grew tired tinkering with it. Might be in the book I have been encouraged to produce.

After completing “Moody Pumpkins” the foreground looked interesting so I removed the pumpkins modified the remaining foreground and added the trees and sky. Tree colors were selected from the foreground and other palettes.

"Homecoming" (2022) Begun in Tayasui Sketches as a doodle and finished in Procreate on iPad Pro with the Apple Pencil 2.

Began in Tayasui Sketch and completed in Procreate.

Quickly created in Procreate on an iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil.

Had an unfinished doodle of green trees sitting in my Procreate Gallery when I was asked to submit a Christmas card to our draw group. Some quick modifications to the green trees and the result.

This piece became darker and darker as I progressed. The piece most likely regressed. The stems?

While watching "Alexandra Ehle" a new French series released on MHz Choice I noticed the character was using the app Tayasui Sketches on her iPad. Since I hadn't used the app for awhile today felt like the right time to dive into it again. This speedy painting is the result. Using a background I had created some time ago suggested a limited palette which helped the flow of the piece onto the screen. The series stars Julie Depardieu.

Created in Linea Sketch app on second gen iPad Pro with Apple Pencil.

Drawn in Procreate on the iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil using the Himalaya rough watercolor paper purchased from Calvin at DrifterStudio.

A lone fisherman on the lake. An atmospheric piece done in Procreate on an iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil.

Two hours in Procreate. Needs work at a later date.

The magic of the mushroom.

'Pod' (2019) Very quick test doodle of a pod of orcas in Paper Pro by WeTransfer with Apple Pencil G2 on an iPad Pro G3. 

I finally got to do a little digital art today. Dabi our Miniature American Shepherd female puppy napped beneath me while I sat on a bench outdoors. It is a quick watercolor done in Procreate on my iPad with the Apple Pencil.

Quick sketch created in WorkVisual App on iPad Pro with Apple Pencil. The 36$ app was free that day. Liked the drawing aspect of the app. Later manipulated in Procreate and Affinity Photo.

Created in Paper by 53 (WeTransfer) and polished in Procreate.
