Last night the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd on the campus of Ohio University in Athens, Ohio hosted guitarist Dr. Júlio Ribeiro Alves, a faculty member of the Marshall University School of Music since 2006. No microphone, no sound system; only the maestro, his guitar, and the beautiful music their collaboration produced.
Before the night had ended I began committing to memory this digital rendition of Alves and his guitar on my iPad Pro in the Sketch Club app using an Apple Pencil and a reference photo that I took towards the end of the performance. I “finished” the piece this morning in Sketch Club adding a tweak or two in iColorama. Below I’ve inserted the behind-the-scenes “Sketch Stats.”
