    I decided to do something simple today, so I opened MS Paint. The brown background with streaks of orange came first. The foreground is a styled woman. the hourglass figure is one of my favorites to work with. There are several things I can do with it including dogs and dragons. But today it’s just…

    It’s Independence Day in the USA. We celebrate our freedom from a distant king. Of course here in Wisconsin we are just as distant and unheard as the early colonists. The question of the day is about what I am an authority over. I’d like to say myself. I’d like to claim that I am…

    The first few lines formed a face. I added an eye and some teeth. He was looking up at something but the upper right was empty. I draw one more line and decided he was looking up at a woman. I’ve told you I’m obsessed with hands and I thought he might be reaching up…

    This is three layers of transparent background molded into a single work of art. The bottom layer is the jagged bush. On top of that is a dragon slowly turning invisible.

    Today’s art is simple. SketchPad has ten basic colors. I chose four of those for this piece. The dark green background as a base against light green hills was the beginning. There are only two greens so I went with brown for the grass. I wanted to do ladybugs but the app isn’t detailed enough…

    I have an obsession with hands. There are so many artistic ways to do them. I want to draw the perfect hand. But I don’t want it to just be a photograph. There is something about hands that I find compelling to draw. They can be very simple. But more often then not they can…

    So I do my “finger painting” on a mobile app called SketchPad. It’s difficult to make exact marks with the tip of my index finger, so sometimes when I try to draw a small line I get a couple of dots instead. You can see a few of those in the grass. It’s also difficult…
