Line Drawing - Dr. Rajkumar

 Tried another single line drawing.  A portrait of Dr. Rajkumar.  

Line Drawing

 Tried line drawing of Freddie Mercury of Queen on my iPad.  Never thought it would be so peaceful and therapeutic to doodle on glass. This is one of my first tries at finishing the entire drawing with one uninterrupted single line. Lot of fun and challenging. 

Mukilteo Lighthouse

 We finally ventured out of the house during this Covid season to visit Mukilteo and Whidbey Island.  Happened to visit the cute little lighthouse at Mukilteo and loved it.  Here is a quick sketch of the lighthouse.

Santorini Inspiration

A visit to Santorini was on my bucket list ever since I saw the first photo of the blue domes and whitewashed cubiform houses against the dramatic blue Aegean sea.  The picture perfect views from the village of Oia are breathtaking.  Finally, I was able to visit Santorini this year.  Thoroughly enjoyed the place and took a lot of photos. 

Here are a few sketches inspired by this beautiful island.

Michelangelo's David

Pencil sketch of Michelangelo's David.  The anticipation of action is perfectly manifested in the facial features.  The 13.5' tall statue carved by a twenty-something Michelangelo is breathtaking and a must see in Florence.

 

iPad sketch 2

Here is a try at drawing a portrait with the iPad and iPencil.  I am getting used to drawing on the tablet and layers gives me a lot of flexibility and ease of erasing mistakes.

iPad and iPencil sketch

Bought the new iPad and Pencil last week and wanted to try digital sketching.  Here is my first digital sketch.  The Pencil does a pretty good job, but the lag is noticeable with the new iPad.

Used the free Adobe Sketch app.  Unfortunately, this app does not offer different papers.  Want to try ProCreate next.
