Museum Paintings

Here are some studies from a couple of museums, Oxford Pitt Rivers and Sanxingdui Museum Chengdu, China. Procreate on an Ipad pro.

I haven't posted for a while so this a bit of dump of bits and pieces I've been working on. I joined the 'Schoolism' site and started the course 'Painting with light and Colour' run by the amazing Robert Kondo and Dice Tsutsumi. I need to get on and finish that as I've had a few weeks out as we moved house, but it'll be a good way to start the new year. I really recommend the course for anyone even remotely interested in painting. 

I've just started using a great piece of software called 'Infinite Painter' by this guy:

To do sketches on my phone. Its great as it replicates real paint pretty nicely and has all the tools I would normally use on my PC. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 at the moment, but might see if I can pick up a larger note tablet in future to do more finished paintings.

Here's an update to the bar sketch I posted a while back:
