This sketch of the Atlanta, GA, based Quill the Duo was created live over Zoom (from 3,000 miles away!) while the duo, Elizabeth Grimes and Steph Hughes, played songs from their new Christmas EP at their live-streamed release celebration. Their EP includes the title track “Hard Times : Tidings of Comfort”. I used an iPad pro, Apple Pencil and the Procreate app. This event came out of a chance meeting in Atlanta Hartfield Airport when I was changing planes en-route to an event and heard Elizabeth playing keyboards and singing. We kept in touch and she and Steph kindly invited me to be part of their special celebration.

Here’s the Zoom performance (39 minutes, starts with Elizabeth’s gracious introduction):


Here’s a time-lapse replay of my sketch:


Thanks, Jeremy Hughes, for tech support!
