This week's Illustration Friday topic is "Glow". This was created using the SketchClub app on the iPad. I saw Unihorse's wonderful Sketch Club app vector tool tutorial and have been experimenting with it. It's a lot of fun, but takes a little getting used to.
SketchClub has a recording feature that can record your painting as you create it. you can see a video recording of some of the work with the vector tool I did for on the "glow" painting on YouTube here.

I decided to do participate in this week's Illustration Friday "Highlight" challenge using my new IPad and some IPad art apps. For this little sketch, I used IDraw, a vector drawing program for the drawing and Art Rage, a paint program for the color. I'm having so much fun drawing on the IPad. Will write more about it in some future posts.
The topic for Illustration Friday this week is "Instinct".
She didn't know where she was going, but Sally's instinct told her it wasn't good.
The Illustration Friday topic this week is "similar". It made me think of how people can tend to avoid others who are different from them.
"We're Similar!" is inspired by memories of the way the social system at grade school worked when I was little (still does?), and how children who were different in some way or didn't have clothes that were as nice as the others were ostracized.
This week's topic for Illustration Friday is - "sugary".
The dollies became over-enthusiatic when decorating their homemade pastry and tossed the sugary sprinkles all over.

Tilly (my daughter's favorite name when she was little) had a hard day at work, took off her socks and boots, threw down her books, and collapsed in a corner with a bowl of walnuts.
The topic for this week's Illustration Friday is "sail". "Sailing, Sailing" is a digital painting made in Illustrator and Painter. I used one of my fantasy critters from my collage work (the one-eyed, one-legged purple guy) as inspiration and one of my doodly drawings as a starting point. I played around with layers, blends, and transparencies in Illustrator, and found from a Painter help forum that there was a bug in Painter X. "Preserve transparency" in the layers panel seems to be enabled and won't let you draw on a new layer. The way around it was to click on "preserve transparency" so it is checked, then uncheck it. Then I was able to draw on a new layer. I had fun with this one.
I found the delightful website, "Illustration Friday", and decided to participate this week. "Illustration Friday" is a weekly art exhibit that anyone, illustrators and artists of any skill level, can participate in by creating a picture in any medium that responds to the week's one word topic.
This week's topic was "foggy". "Searching for Bertram in the Fog" is a small (5" x 7") digital painting made in Adobe Illustrator and Corel Painter. I used a Wacom tablet with pen for doing the drawing.
