iPhone sketch for Hunt 151

I sketched for Scavenger Hunt 151. One of the challenges was to do a digital sketch. Yes! I borrowed Gene's iPhone for about 45 minutes. I'm not nearly as fast with the iPhone as the pen. Whew. I had to learn all over and tried a stylus to see if I was better at the straight lines. I don't think so. You have to press harder and that takes away the quick line, brush stroke effect. Maybe I will get used to it.

Number 1, what is directly in front of me. My new hard drive for storage and the silver stylus for the iPhone, I was using the red one.

I used to sketch on my computer with a program called Dabbler and before that I sketched with the graphic tools on Appleworks which was Clarisworks when I started. I can't open those old sketches here, but I will look on my old iMac and get some to post later. That was fun.

Here are a couple from the Dabbler days. Dabbler had brushes, pastels, oils, pen, spray paint, etc. You could add texture and more.

I borrowed a friend's iphone and tried out Brushes. Not being an iphone user, it was difficult for me, but fun.

fishing guy, thank you! There is always something new to learn and try.

Bag Blog, good for you. I don't plan on getting my own phone, just use Gene's. I need to get a new draw/paint program for the computer, though. It is good for coordination I think. I need all the help I can get. :)
