Painting on IPad

Image
I paint a lot on my ipad. When I see something beautiful and have no time to set up the easel I take the ipad and in a few minutes do a color study of the subject. Some of these studies turn into real paintings, other stay in a digital form. I have done hundreds of plein air and still life studies on my ipad (Ipad Air, Procreate App) for the past couple of years. I will be sharing some of them with you. Every time you do a life study, you learn. No matter what the medium is.
