Painting on the Procreate App

I was lucky enough to be able to get an Apple Pencil for Christmas and downloaded the Procreate App for art. In this app, you have a numerous amount of tools for drawing, sketching, and even painting. I played around yesterday and painted a simple beach scene. I used a combination of brushes ( oil and round ) and just kept playing around until I was happy with the outcome. I then searched for a quote to apply to it and used the Enlight App to paste it onto the picture. I love the end result…not too bad for a first painting! ☺️

Her it is with the quote and edited using the Enlight app…

I then painted this football of course with an “A” for Alabama Crimson Tide…

Have you played around with digital painting? I’d love to hear advice and see examples…

Another Ornament for Christmas

I found some more ornaments in my closet of craft stuff while cleaning this summer. Obviously my cleaning didn't get very far being so delighted with my new discovery! I found a cute clip art a while back of some holly leaves, so I thought about how I could do it inside the ornament. After a few minutes, I was ready to start. After gluing two leaves together, I gently pushed them inside. I then used a plastic butter knife to keep them lying flat and let them dry. I then added the third leaf.

Quilled Horseback Rider

I have a close friend who has trusted me to create several pieces for her and this was one of them. It makes me happy to have a new challenge and this was indeed one. I used a photo given to me as a reference and quilled atop a print out of it. I have the photo cut out in my pocket protector and am quilling on top of it careful not to glue the paper to the plastic. I use straight pins to hold it together until it dries. Here I’ve taken the quilled rider and horse off of the styrofoam backing and added to a background I added of layered trees. Here’s the final piece…

Quilled Ballerina

Quilled Ballet, Dancer I wanted to try something challenging and I saw a picture of a ballerina that I thought might be the one. Well, here it is....I used a combination of beehive and regular quilling. This is in honor of my daughter turning 13 today! Happy Birthday!!! Quilled Ballerina Quilled Ballerina
