Rule #1

Never promise to draw while on vacation.

I promised that I would do a drawing a day, on my iPad, while I am on vacation. Now I am being asked to actually draw someting. Whine.

Today was my first full day, so here is Vacation Drawing #1.

A little sketching, a little wine

I went  to see some friends this afternoon, and to paint, with watercolors. I made a mess of things. The wine didn’t have anything to do with it, I swear. Out of frustration I pulled out my iPad and made this drawing. Than I gave a drawing lesson to a cat. No, really I did. See the photos below the drawing.

Giving a Drawing Lesson to Elvis, the Cat

I think Elvis was more interested in the stylus than in learning how to draw.

Spinnrädl Restaurant – A Favorite

I am putting together a show of my iPad digital sketches of old Kaiserslaltern, Germany. The Spinnrädl Restaurant is one my favorite iPad paintings, and places to eat. That’s me in front of it a couple of days ago, and my painting to the right.

The original photo that I worked from is below. It was taken by Peter Turgetto of the Kaiserslautern Media Center (which he founded) sometime in the late 1930s (best guess). Spinnrädl is one of the older buildings in Kaiserslautern, however, the building with the archway in the original photo was even older. Unfortunately, it was demoloshed to make room for a (tacky) new building.
