Went to Disneyland yesterday, and decided to make it somewhat useful, art-blog-wise.
Anyway, this was done after riding the Matterhorn, while in the line for Pirates.

This was an incredibly quick sketch (less than a minute), but I really like how it turned out.
Initially based on an actual cloud, then extrapolated upon. (Mainly because said cloud was no longer visible.)
From last week, as one can probably guess.
I’m now using a different drawing app that is much more user-friendly and useful… hence the increase in blending and detail, and decrease in garish colors.
Actually, I have no idea what’s going on here… is that a sun? An explosion? Hmm… sounds like this calls for an Artist’s Statement.
Artist’s Statement
As the Philosopher once said, “Only in darkness does light shine forth bright enough to illuminate the mind’s subconscious.”
In this image, I wanted to show that even something as simple as an explosion could reflect upon the passing ship-like knowledge of the human psyche, bringing to light all those dents and scratches that make up the futile underpinnings of mankind’s pettiness. In such light, how can one do anything but throw off the shackles of greed, jealousy, and hatred, and trade them in for a big heaping plate of Gagh?
So, as the title may or may not suggest, this was done on my iPhone, using a simple drawing application.
As can be seen, precision isn’t the easiest thing to manage when using your finger to draw lines that are smaller in width than it is. I hope to get better, though, for having a portable digital sketchbook could come in quite handy.
