Saturday october 23

i've been watching the weather all week and lets meet in the class room tomorrow. it looks like it'll still be partly cloudy so we can work indoors on composition.

lovely overcast

this weekends iPad painting. it was completely overcast for Saturdays class which gives you very consistent light. i tried out a new app called Inspire Pro. very painterly. good comparative color picker, good brushes, nice cross-hair for stylus. 95% painted in Inspire and the other 5% in sketchbook pro for some scatter brush effect.
