This is an iPad painting, made with a beta version of iColorama and Procreate. The two left photos were taken by me, with the iPad, while sitting in the chemotherapy suite. The one on the right was taken at home, the next day.
This is a full resolution file of an image posted sometime late September, or early October. I had neglected to notice the earlier versions were downsized. I appolgise to my friends for not realizing my mistake.
This is a perhaps nonstandard design of one of the print letters in the Cherokee alphabet, turned upside down and painted. I couldn't find this letter when I looked again at their alphabet. Many of the letters in the Cherokee aphabet look to me like interesting miniature sculptures, although of course since they are flat they would only be profiles of possible sculptures. In any case, here it is just something I used to paint a simple abstract, using Procreate (iPad app).
I was privileged to come across this snapping turtle laying her eggs in the sand on one of the hiking trails at Presque Isle State Park in Erie, PA.
Now don't look at me like that. I'm not that way. I posted this as a picture of hope. You see, the green lizards of my youth have been slowly loosing ground to these grey Cuban lizards. They're bigger, faster, and uglier. Like little iguana's with horns and spikes and everything. Naturally, the slower green lizards have been harder and harder to find around the state. What you're looking at is hope for the species. A possibility of a green lizard resurgence. A brighter, greener, new tomorrow! (I really don't like those cuban lizards)
Look at the colours of these things! Why don't we build cars like this? He is in the middle of some part of the old insect getting-it-on process here. Didn't seem to get at all camera shy though, even though it is about an inch from the action...
If you look very carefully at his back at the large size, he seems to have some kind of tiny parasitic tick, or something.
Setup: Taken in Em's parents' garden with the tele, the old jammed Pentacon 50 and the roll of insulation tape that makes up my precision macro rig. Check the EXIF for the tele settings; a lot of them are at 70mm, hence the vignetting. The light was not great either, so the aperture was not as small as I'd have liked.
These are a few of the insects secure in their own looks to cope with the focus distance of round about an inch.
All uploaded in original size, because the larger the more magical when it comes to insects I think!
I'm pretty sure I've allowed All Sizes. Let me know if not.
Also, if anyone wants to identify them, knock yourselves out! My insectology is right up there with my knowledge of the correct name for the study of them.
It's been so long since I've painted anything (though digitally in this case) that I forgot how hard it is. All done with a finger (hence the crooked lines) on an iPad with Procreate - finished in 40 minutes.
This week has been rather busy with “Art work“. I’ve also been ill. I do not think there’s a correlation between the two but…. This is an entry into the daily drawing for “draw or die”. The prompt was reference to a song in the Rocky IV movie: “Ain’t no easy way out”. I had to do some research to find this song. I don’t recall ever seeing the movie just little snippets of it. The time period would’ve been when I was deployed at sea. Unlike some of the other songs from the Rocky movies, this one never caught attention I guess.
