What’s the deal with all the apples?

This project started as an exercise to learn and practice with all the functionality of the Art Set 4 app on my new iPad Pro. I had lusted after this particular piece of technology for some years and found myself, upon its arrival, simultaneously both extremely excited to finally have it in my hot little hands, and so intimidated by all the available art media and effects in Art Set that I was afraid to even try it. I was suffering from the proverbial artist’s “white page” paralysis. I just sat there with the iPad on my lap and Art Set open, the Apple Pencil in my hand...utterly stuck. My son said, “Just draw an apple.” OK, I knew I could do that. An apple was safe. So I did. The next day I did another, and the next day another. 


With each new apple I am exploring both the the technology and myself within the safe boundary of “ just drawing an apple.” I share them with you here, in hope that the small consistency of a daily art apple will bring a thread of continuity through these strange times (and help keep the doctor away). Enjoy.

P.S. Intrigued? Here are some helpful links;

My Instagram account is the most current forum for my art, and includes everything I’m doing. It is up to date in real time, so a piece scheduled for posting here that was completed before the scheduled post date will be up on my Instagram account. 

My FaceBook page for the most part mirrors my Instagram account, but not entirely.  

My art shop,  FanFARE Themed Art, where you can purchase prints and original artworks is located on Ko-fi.com (see the upper right corner for a link to the shop). Please contact me directly if you have any questions about a purchase or commission and please feel free to support my chai latte habit, again, via the Ko-fi link in the upper right corner of the home page. 

NON-APPLE ARTWORKS?

These pages show some of my non-apple artwork. Several original artworks are available for sale, some as limited edition giclee prints. Open-ended made-to-order prints are available for any image. Again<see my Ko-fi shop.
