Iris - artPad drawing

I did this drawing on this cool site, artPad.

This is the final image, but you can actually see it being drawn by clicking here! (It's about five minutes long, on the fastest speed setting.)

This is such a cool program!

Great practice on my tablet (still haven't fully gotten the hang of that thing.) The progress of this image is very very long, kids kept me quite distracted while working on it. Fast is your friend, even then it's still very long. Sorry. A good way into it i had to work slowly cause my computer was having problems... Undo was definately my friend!

I used a photo ref, and i have to give credit to this great site of very lovely ren faire photos, Photography on the Run. They were very very nice and gave me permission to use some of their wonderful photos as ref images for my artwork. There are a LOT of pics, if you wanna see the ref i used without browsing through them all, it's here.

That was fun. I really love this thing. I only wish they had more color options. While the opacity option is cool, it's still hard to get the colors you want. The skin tone in this one is really off!... But it's still a cool little thing.

You can make your own drawing/painting and show it off too... Just follow this link
