Ann and I joined a few others on kayaks early in the morning on the 4th of July. Refreshing!
From his kayak Sam took a photo of the four of us on his iPhone. Here’s that photo. I cropped it to include only Annyth and me.
Procreate.
A couple of weeks ago I walked out of yoga class and saw a shinny green bug in the parking lot. I pulled out my iPhone and snapped this shot. After drawing the VW bug in Procreate on my iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil, I simply didn’t feel like drawing the other cars and all that. So I stoped there, saved the image, opened it in iColorama, and did some tweaking. Then I brought it back into Procreate for some final touches.
I realized, once I finished Bug in the Parking Lot, that this is how I saw it with post-yoga oxygenated eyes!

Yesterday a co-member of the Mobile Artists Collective, a Facebook group that I belong to, posted an image that intrigued me so much that I felt I had to try drawing it myself, and luckily, Janis Bradenburg Lee gave me permission to use her image as a reference for a digital drawing and to share a little background on the image that she posted. Here’s my rendition of Janis’ image as drawn in Procreate:

And here’s the image that Janis created in iColorama and Repox and posted:
The original photo, from Pixabay, is here:
As I mention to Janis when I contacted her to request permission for me to use her image as a reference for a drawing and to post all this on my illustroblog, what she had crafted and posted called my attention for a variety of reasons, but mainly because of the colors, expression, and effects. I hope to do more like this.

Named after the “serrated mountain” of Montserrat located near Barcelona in Catalonia, Spain, the Benedictine Abbey of Santa Maria de Montserrat is as breathtaking as its setting. Among the thousands of visitors on the grounds of the abbey on Wednesday the 18th of May 2016 I actually saw one of the resident monks walk into the basilica. This drawing, which has helped smooth out some of my jet lag, is based on a photo that I took with my iPhone.
