Project 8 is behind me and there are only two more before the end of this penultimate unit, so this is as good a time as any to take a look back at how things have gone. Key points Progress … Continue reading Post-tutorial reflection
Initial tutor feedback indicated a need to improve continuity of argument as there appeared to be chasms which might not be obvious to me as the writer but that leave the reader wondering how the content got from one place … Continue reading Project 9
For post hoc reasons, this post is masquerading as Project 9. I am currently mid hoc. And the annual Advent Window parade is on its way. This is a whole-lane enterprise with as many of us as possible putting up … Continue reading Advent time, Pepperscoombers!
To everything turn turn turn … It’s about to get colourful around here, differently colourful I should say, as the greens turn yellow, orange, and red, and just as I used an orange/red base for the green foliage, I’m using … Continue reading Autumn path
This is a painting from an earlier module. I’d made a rather dramatic video as its AR overlay but, after talking in a tutorial about the use of text in art, I thought I might substitute the apocalypse for a very simple title and signature. The video is made in PowerDirector, the greenscreen titles in PaintshopPro. The AR is live via #Artivive. You can find the painting in my Artsteps Strayfish gallery https://www.artsteps.com/view/63cc3569c0a4cb48a02c254e SCH 2024 Continue reading Titling a painting
These are in-app recordings of the worm/spider/cat animations of a previous post. The worm and spider videos are designed to personalise wildlife that gets a raw deal from us through ignorance and phobic fears. For anyone wanting to manage those … Continue reading Out in the wild animations

In case the relevance of this is unclear – and it certainly was to me when I started because I was dodging the actual coursework – I’m learning how to develop a narrative and to illustrate it with a few … Continue reading Procreate animations – the journey continues
This is another part of my garden, or another angle to be more precise. And I’m using a 3″ brush, something I’ve never done before. The support is A1 card, pre-used. Above is the image I was drawing on. Everything … Continue reading Under the Dome (project 8)
I have iThings and also Procreate and Procreate Dreams but never (barring the pair of love-struck eyes I found in one of the places iThings hide things) made an animation before. Welcome to the Grand Premiere then of [drum roll] Wormlife! This on the other hand, while masquerading under today’s date, was made some time ago. It may have deterred me for months, years even, from doing any more. I seem to have a thing about eyeballs. I found some more peering out over a painting – SCH 2024 Continue reading Procreate videos
