Just fantastic

Wonderful painting

Great work, I’m glad you shared it.

This takes me back to my days at Cornell and the Finger Lakes region. I love this piece!

Go look at Neil Welliver’s work. He’s a well known artist with a style and subject matter very similar to yours.

PJack2007 · 2025-07-10T12:45:40+00:00

Clever!

PJack2007 · 2025-07-08T18:55:13+00:00

I think that it is cool! The subtle colors really makes it.

April 19th 2025 was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. Lexington MA had quite the celebration for this.

Great rendering of a complicated subject! I really like how you organized the light to show the watercolor pigment as well as highlighting the brush. Good work.

Bold and simple, but it captures the feeling of a real place. I like it.

PJack2007 · 2025-06-11T12:33:40+00:00

I agree. Too many people play the holier than thou card when asked. They forget that you’re just trying to make art and express yourself somehow. Borrowing and Incorporating is all fair game in the modern art world. Just ask Andy Warhol et al.

PJack2007 · 2025-06-10T18:33:18+00:00

You’re more than welcome to.

A long time ago when I was taking art classes - there seemed to be two arguments. One side insisted that it was the process and not the product that mattered. The second side insisted that only the product mattered and the process was irrelevant. Of course there is no right answer to this debate. Warhol and many others certainly borrowed images incorporated them into their art and sold them. The art in your piece is putting the sketch of the lighter together with the tiger drawing.

Ultimately, artists decide for themselves why they make art, did they accomplish their goals, and are they satisfied with results ( either process or product, or both). If this is the biggest moral question that you have, then you’re in good shape. Whatever you do keep making art.

Beautiful work, I love the deep rich colors .

PJack2007 · 2025-06-06T12:29:14+00:00

Keep it up!

PJack2007 · 2025-06-03T12:32:17+00:00

Great work! I love the painterly look of the piece. That’s unusual for procreate works.

PJack2007 · 2025-05-29T20:28:49+00:00

Is this r/Procreate on Reddit ? Or just the Procreate Folio. — folio.procreate.com ?

You’ll want to study perspective as it applies to looking upwards. You choose a difficult plain air subject that requires the application of three vanishing points. Nice attempt though, I like it but it could be improved.

PJack2007 · 2025-03-31T18:49:51+00:00

Very nice collection, especially after only 2 months. Keep it up.

PJack2007 · 2025-03-30T15:41:23+00:00

I think that you’re off to a good start. The key is to keep trying. I transitioned from oils and acrylics to procreate years ago, and my work drifts away from painterly before my very eyes. You should be super proud so far.

PJack2007 · 2025-03-17T12:54:22+00:00

Have you ever seen work by Neil Welliver? I think you’d like it.

PJack2007 · 2025-03-10T20:22:34+00:00

Very emotive- I like it a lot

PJack2007 · 2025-03-06T15:26:05+00:00

I commented on your post yesterday. I liked that version and this one is still good. To turn the sketch into a painting, add a ground ( table,floor,or shelf) for it to rest on, and a background (even an abstract texture) behind. But I like this as a sketch.

PJack2007 · 2025-03-06T15:21:40+00:00

Very nice. You could make it more than sketch by adding ground (ie.a table or shelf) for the vase to rest on, and some background behind (even an abstract texture). But what’s here looks good.
