Doodles in Procreate

 Have really enjoyed doodling in Procreate. There are so many brushes that are already great and so many ways to refine those brushes in ways that I want - yep, more fun than Photoshop as far as that goes. Procreate can never replace pencils, paint and paper for me because there's something amazing and therapeutic about the tactile use of those, but I can work on color theory, values, and brushstroke placements in Procreate without making as much of a mess as I would with traditional media. That and I LOVE the undo function. I find myself wishing for an undo button when I physically draw on paper... I'm really no good at working painterly in digital yet but am loving the process - this is my version of "Tempest" by John Larriva    And this one is my version of Eilidh's "Passage" - Could definitely use more work, but it definitely has the same 'feel' for me as the original.

digital painting: Green Bottle

I really need to brush up on my digital painting skills - would really like to be able to grasp color a bit better and that means many more hours of practice. Not sure that's something I want to invest in, but I sure love it when something comes together. Green bottle - digital painting done in photoshop with a Wacom and some cool brush tools. I cheated and sampled colors from the source photo. Glass has always been a scary drawing/painting subject for me.
