Early iPad Drawings

The iPad artworks shown on this page represent some of my earliest iPad drawings. They were created directly from life on an iPad without use of photography between 2010 and 2012. With the exception of the Amsterdam portrait, they are all made using a Nomad Brush. I use the long bristle option, which can be purchased by clicking on the right hand link above. The left hand link is the short bristle version. The sketch (above) was created using the ZenBrush app.

The scene above shows an iPad drawing demonstration I gave to a group of school children at the Weinstein Gallery in San Francisco.The painting below was created using the ArtRage app in the Sheraton Imperial lounge at Raleigh, North Carolina.

This sketch was made in the ASKetch app. I drew this in Bar Norcini, San Francisco.

You see the Nomad brush in action above.
This painting is of saxaphonist Bobby Webb and was created in ArtRage while he played at Pier 23, San Francisco.

My first iPad drawing: a sketched portrait of Jonathan Weeks beside a canal in the center of Amsterdam. I created theportrait using my fingertip on the iPad surface to control the brush in the SketchBookPro app. You can see a video of the drawing process on my online training site PaintboxTV.com.
