You know the Peanuts cartoon where Snoopy is doing the happy dance?
Well, that’s me tonight. And this is the reason:
Women in Red # 15
Women in Red # 15. Oh, I luvvvvv this one. She makes me happy. I feel like I’m getting this style down, getting comfortable with working in the iPad, working with Procreate.
I even like the way my signature turned out.
And I owe it all to the 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenge. Because without that commitment I don’t think I would’ve sat down every day and stuck with learning Procreate. Never would’ve gotten past the frustrations of the early learning curve. I know I wouldn’t have painted (if that’s what you call this digital image making) every day. And would have never come up with the Women in Red theme.
But I did and I have and I’m here. And I’ll continue being here with a new painting every day until the 30 days are over. And then I might just set myself up with a new series, a new challenge. Who knows?
Prints of this image and the rest of the Women in Red series are now available in my Society 6 shop. The link is up above and to the right on the sidebar.
Technical info: Created entirely on my iPad 2 using Procreate.
As always, I’d love to hear what you have to say in the comments below. And if you like this post please share it with your friends.

30 Paintings 30 Days, Day 6
She’s not like the others. Where my previous Women in Red are bold, this one is a whisper. She was created on Procreate, like the others, but in a format that I didn’t realize at the time only allows for two layers. And so she’s stuck here.

I rather like her, absolutely love the line quality and the smudges even though some people (talkin’ to you, Dear Daughter) say she looks like she was on the losing end of a bar fight.
She’s different than the others because I created her a few days before the challenge, when I was getting my digital toes wet, so to speak.
This is all a learning curve. I think today I’ll spend some quality time on app forums and see what I can learn. Because everything I’ve done so far has been by the seat of my pants and I’m sure I’m missing a lot of what can be done.
As always, sweetums, I’d love to hear what you think in the comments below.

Whoo-hoo! Off and running with the 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenge. If you saw my post from yesterday (and if you haven’t then stop right now and check it out) you know that I’m doing this on my iPad because I’m too lazy to clean the studio a brave digital adventuress. Yes, I AM all that and more.
I’m also rambling so let’s just cut to the chase and show some art.
Here it is, Digital Daily #2, AKA Women in Red # 2.

And you know how I feel about that!
