I’m just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop, working this week with a super middle-aged female model who has great presence. I was reading a blog about the relationship between artists and models by fellow artist Michael Richards earlier today, where he explores the collaboration between the two. It’s a good read. I really appreciate what the models bring to the creative experience. I don’t always get inspired by a model or a particular session, the actual drawing practice is also important to me. But sometimes a model, or even a pose, triggers off something inspirational. This was a quick drawing onto my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet using a free Markers app.
Never used a computer or app to draw. Looks like painting to me. Wonder if I’d like it?
Why do you enjoy it? Curious.
You can get different apps, some are more drawing, some more painting. I like it because I can press the Save button every few seconds and this builds up a load of drawings at different stages of the process that can be edited together reasonably easily to make an animation, you can see the drawing growing.
