Yeah yeah, I know–it’s not Tuesday for a good many of you but it is Tuesday somewhere in the world. Like down under thataway. And Tutorial Tuesday has such a clever ring to it I might decide to make it a regular feature…at least for this week.
So, with no further ado, I bring you this week’s tutorial. Drumroll please…ta da!!! A behind the scenes look at digital painting, how a I created Women in Red # 5 on the iPad.
And my very first adventure with iMovie.
I apologize in advance for the fuzzy text. Apparently it’s an iMovie thing, something I only discovered after redoing this three times, the answer discovered after a midnight search of the interwebs. And yes, the formatting cut off her head–damn you iMovie (shaking fist at sky). Did I mention the dog ate my homework too? What the hell, I’ve been playing with this sucker all day, now it’s late and I’m going to bed.
You get whatcha get…
And in case you don’t remember this Woman in Red and would like to see her with her head–
G’night my sweetums. As I’ve been telling the poor dear (sans her head) up above, I shall remind you as well:
We all are. That’s why I know you’ll talk to me in the comments below. Because it’s been a loooong day and I could use some lovin’ from my besties.
How cool is that. I too, have procreate,but it’s a lot harder for me to work with. Wish I could understand it more. 🙂
It took me awhile and I’m still learning, Kelli. Procreate has a great book (free) that will walk you through the steps. You can find it on their website.
I also have a friend who’s putting together a procreate bootcamp. I can put you in touch with her if you’re interested.
Super super cool Sue. I have no idea how to do anything like this, though I do create in my own way(s) via Illustrator, Photoshop, WordPress and a serger. I’ll have to explore some more and will definitely be watching for more tips from you!
It was fun to make, Rachel. I’ve never made a movie before (slideshow, yes) so it’s all a learning experience. You can learn practically anything on youtube 🙂
What a great idea. Not only painting on the iPad, but as a way to show your process. I loved it. Had no idea, and actually never thought of, starting with layers of marks. In a way, I guess, it’s like my painting and scribbling on the warp before I begin to weave. Love it!

Starting with scribbles and layers is my way of adding a depth to the painting that you just can’t get when you start straight with paint. Or at least that’s what I tell myself, Linda. I don’t know much about weaving but it makes perfect sense to me that you do it too. BTW, your wee giftie from last week is ready to wrap and send, knowing me it will be next week before I get to the post office. 🙂
