Ways to Render a Pear 004-005 – Ipad with Oil pastel (rough)

I thought I would show how the Oil Pastel looks done on the IPad in Art Set Pro when it’s not blended, a more fair comparison to the traditional oil pastel.
Ways to Render a Pear 003 – Sennelier Oil Pastel

Starting with the most obvious ways to render a pear, I had to try the real oil pastel too. Although the IPad version was more polished, probably because I haven’t done as much with the IPad painting.
Ways to Render a Pair 002 – Ipad in Oil Pastel (blended)

This is an exercising in how many ways can I find to render a pair, starting with some of the most basic. In this case on the IPad using the Art Set Pro App with the oil Pastel tool.
IPad Life Drawings
I decided to try using the IPad at our Life Drawing Group. I haven’t used the IPad there since I had my first Ipad 1, when it came out. You have to change it up a bit once in a while.
The 5 minute drawing.
Last Night’s Life Drawing
We haven’t had our models pose nude much over the winter, as it is colder in the room. Spring is here! Wished I would have used the dark brown pastel instead of the black. I didn’t look closely at what I was picking up. 10″x 18″ pastel on paper
Remembering My Father
Today is my Dad’s Birthday, he would be 78. He passed away 3 years ago. This is a picture I drew of him as a child, when I was in High School. My Dad liked to draw horses from memory.
When I was a kid, I enjoyed watching him work with wood. I played in his saw dust, with the smell of cedar in the air. On the right is a picture of the grandfather clock he made. All of it’s parts are wooden, right down to the walnut screws. There isn’t any metal. The weight is a rock, because wood wasn’t heavy enough. It’s stands about 8ft tall, running with a wooden tick tock.
He inspired me to be what I am today! Happy Birthday Dad!
Tonight’s Life Drawing
We had our model in a good costume this evening. I enjoyed drawing some drapery for a change of pace. 12″x16″ hard pastel on warm gray Canson pastel paper.
