I used Google AI Studio and Photoshop to turn a couple of photos of our kitties into illustrations.

β€œA Walk in the Woods” β€” I painted this using Procreate on an iPad. The painting is my attempt at what ArtStation.com calls Environmental Concept Art. I’ve included my original sketch and an early version where I started blocking in colors.

My latest sketchbook sketch. I painted this with gouache. I used two different photos as references. One of Yorkshire (the English countryside) and the other of some mountains in Alaska. So, technically, this is not a real place. 😊 #gouache #art #painting #watercolor #mountains #Yorkshire

I painted this with Procreate. The house is in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I lived in its attic apartment during the summer of 1976, while I was interning at the Upjohn Company. I have old photos of the house in a box somewhere, but instead, for reference, I used an image I found on Google Street View.

Ink wash. Painted in a drawing class in 2018. The splatters are from a woman painting next to me, who got a little wild with her brush work 😳. I like the effect, though…on my painting, not my clothes ☹️
