Table on the Porch

Of course I sketched on the porch.  When it isn't too hot and muggy, that is the place to be early in the morning with my coffee and snack.  I had an HEB protein bar today.  I hadn't had one in a while.  They are so good and about half the price of the name brands.

For Scavenger Hunt 165 https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-165-jul-13-25.8088/

Number 4 table - one of the glass end tables.  The shed and trees through the screen in the background.

I do not use layers or do many changes on my iPad sketches.  I try to have them be just like my sketches with a pen or pastels.  I do use different brushes to get texture, like the triangles on the leaves.  I also use different pressure on the brushes like for the reflections on the table.

I don't do digital sketches very often so it is always a learning curve to remember what I did before.  Therefore, it takes longer to sketch on my iPad, iPhone or iMac.
