First attempt at Digital Painting!

There was a few days where I was unable to sit at my easel. I hated that I wasn’t creating something so I downloaded a free app on my tablet and used my phone stylus and had a go at a digital painting of my horse Jack.

I was pleased with how this came out for my first attempt. I did then start a Red Panda digital painting but haven’t got round to finishing that yet.

Digital painting is done just in the same way as traditional painting. You have the different brushes and you can adjust the settings of the ‘paintbrush’ so you can achieve narrower, lighter strokes etc. Of course it does help to have an UNDO button and the option of working in layers so if you make a ‘wrong layer’ you can scrap it entirely and go back to the previous stage!
