I recently drew this digital artwork I call "Jimmy Carter: Peace Signs and Peanuts" using my iPad, Apple pencil, and the APP Procreate which has natural-looking brushes. HOWEVER, this artwork is made up entirely of peace signs, which I had created and then converted into a "Brush". Then, I dabbed away for hours, using various sized brushes and pressures for hardness and lightness. Next, a few peanuts were draw by hand, which I copied and rotated, and spread around. I finished this piece off with a tan painterly background.

Testimonial:

Jeffrey Wiener's iPad workshops changed my life. They are easy, clear, powerful, creatively freeing. I never thought I could do what Jeff taught me to do. He opened my eyes to a whole new world and he can do that for you, too. Give it a try!"
