Making Art Over Easter

both Kevin and I have been making art but Kevin has actually finished pieces

The first is a sketch of a rabbit I did back in February but I thought in honour of Easter I would bring it back to show you. The next two are ones that Kevin did on Procreate. The first is his ‘scruffy little fox’ and the second his his Easter Bunny. He wasn’t going to make an Easter drawing but he just couldn’t help himself. I did do some more on my larger piece but I’m not ready to show the progression quite yet.

Monsters – A Work in Progress

….or maybe two

The first monster my husband sent me today was titled A Work in Progress. When I asked him if it was unfinished he said it might be but then soon after he sent me a second monster with no title. I am so pleased that he’s enjoying working on his new iPad with Procreate. The goal is to take some of his original paintings and put them into a children’s book. Procreate will help him with backgrounds and give his paintings that finished look that you need for publishing your work.

Here are the two latest monsters.

Monster Monday – Using Procreate

….a new twist on Monster Monday

My husband is getting very serious about producing a children’s book using his monster drawings. To help him with his backgrounds and clean-up his paintings, he’s invested in a new iPad Pro and purchased Procreate.

Procreate is a wonderful program used for drawing and painting. There’s a steep learning curve for those of us who have never used a program like this before but Kevin is working on it every day. Here is his first Monster Monday using Procreate.
