Cokie

I can still hear her voice. Her full name was: Mary Martha Corinne Morrison Claiborne “Cokie” Roberts. 1943-2019

[My way of spending a little extra time with her. One hour and twenty-five minutes and 3,138 brush strokes, to be exact, in Sketch Club on an iPad Pro using an Apple Pencil, plus a tweak in iColorama.]

Here’s a good place to start.

This is a re-do. I already posted a digital iPad drawing done in Paper 53 of Gabriel García Márquez, click here to see that post if you’re so inclined, but I felt like doing another in Sketch Club for the hell of it. Click there to see the translation, if need be.

The quote comes from El otoño del patriarca (1975; p, 183).

This one did it!

I had been knotted up in one spot on my left side near the 4th or 5th vertebra for 3 or 4 weeks, and then it was this yoga pose that decongested everything. See other yoga posts here, yea, click here.

Found another digital Croz painting

I can’t remember exactly when I I’d this, but I know it was in 2018. It looks like I did it in Sketch Club with a tweak or two in iColorama…on my iPad Pro, of course.

Another David Crosby iPad painting

I so enjoyed this Lianna Pevar photo reference found on Twitter (see below) that I felt the urge to create a digital painting of a cropped portion of it in Sketch Club with a tweak in iColorama. Visit the photographer’s site here: Lianna Pevar. Besides, Croz has one of those faces…. I’ve attempted that face elsewhere on this illustroblog, click here to view those renditions.

Three Models of Public Service

These are some of the public servants whom I admire; in his own way, each of these men has stood up to the most divisive, corrosive, and imbecilic leader this country has known. Rather than call attention to him and those whom he is leading astray, I shed a little light on these three models of public service.

Today I add this iPad drawing, done in Sketch Club and tweaked in iColorama, to the Homemade Trump-Related Editorial Cartoons page on this illustroblog as four congresswomen, Reps. Ocasio-Cortez, Pressley, Omar, and Tlaib speak out against the current occupant of the White House and his ongoing xenophobic, racist, and hateful comments, which need to be condemned.
