Welcoming in the new year.
This was an illustration that I had kicking around for some time to celebrate New Year 2020.
Worked up as an ink sketch, I coloured this one up on the iPad to test out how well it would come out.
I am a huge fan of illustrating using Adobe Apps on the iPad, but I still tend to use it only for the colour stage – just can’t seem to get to grips with using the pencil on glass – it needs the resistance that paper gives when using a felt pen or biro.

The iPads Adobe apps allow for much quicker laying-down of colour than working directly in illustrator. Using layers also means that it’s easy to be organised and try out different things.
