  I worked on my iPad and here are

3 drawings I did.

 Marsha

Now when we call it a "Drink and Draw"...

There is more ice tea and soda's as drinks,

rather than beer or hard liquor.

Another Jury Duty Drawing

A drawing I over-looked yesterday.

Jury Duty and the iPad

I had jury duty yesterday and I took

my iPad to keep busy until I was

called on a panel.

Here are some of the people

sitting around waiting for their call.

I was called on a panel but was not

select to serve on the jury...

But I had fun drawing on the iPad.

Another iPad gig....

Last Monday I worked another

iPad gig.

The guests had a lot of fun

and I was drawing the entire 3 hours.

Still learning what I can do

and what I should not do.

Some More iPad Drawing from the Trade Show

Still a learning curve....

 But, having fun with it.

Trade Show working on the iPad

This past Sunday, Monday and Tuesday

I worked a trade show. 

They hired me to draw the caricatures

using the iPad, and print them out

on 4X6 photo paper.

 I am getting more comfortable using the iPad

at gigs. 

Here are 2 groups of some of the people 

that I drew.

Just having fun.

Margaret Thatcher on the iPad

One of the best lines by

Margaret Thatcher is her statement

on socialism.

I think the American politicians should 

take heed.

Another iPad Gig

The client was very pleased, the individual guests

appeared excited about their drawings, and I am

about 80% happy with the work I did.

There is still room for improvement.

Here are most of the drawings I did.

each drawing was printed 4X6.

iPad Gig Not So Hot

I have been doing caricatures for 32 years.

I have started as you know not only

traditional caricatures with markers on paper.

Now I am adding working the gig

using the iPad and printing out

the drawings on 4 X 6 photo paper.

 I worked a gig this past Monday

using the iPad. I was told the client was not

happy with the product. And I agree with her.

Was I working to quickly on trying to get my time down.

From this gig, I learned to take my time

when working with the new ipad gigs.

 These are some of the work I did. 

It has been years since I heard the client 

was not happy with my work.

It hurts, but I can learn from it.

More iPad Drawings from last week

Each gig I do. drawing on the iPad,

I become more comfortable using the tablet

and printer. 

Still learning and working 

with the different tools / layers / plus the

other optional that are in Art Studio.

  I am still working on getting better

with drawings themselves.

People seem to be pleased with

the drawings, but when I get home

and look at them. I see there is

a long way to go to improving

the results.

 I strive to get a likeness every time.

these 2 I missed big time.

Geraldo on the iPad

Last evening I saw Geraldo Rivera

on Television when I was practicing 

drawing on the iPad.

This drawing was done in

about 30 to 40 minutes.

More Drawings from the last iPad Gig

Some I am pleased with.

Some I am not

 Some I got a good likeness.

some I did not get the results

that I wanted.

 This guy wanted me to add

a few hearts, because he will be

away from home next week

on his wedding anniversary.

Another iPad Party Gig

Wednesday evening I did a 3 hour gig, drawing on the iPad

I am pleased to be able to

adjust to the technical elements errors that arise. 

OK, let's put it this way 

I realize  quicker that I made an error. 

I can now adjust to it before I get to far

with the drawing.

 Some of my drawings I am happy with and 

there are other that I know I could have done better.

 I am working on improving 

my speed as well as improve

the drawing style on the iPad.
