iPad Finger paintings

Hello everyone,
I would like to share few iPad finger paintings with you..

i’ve 4 softwares – Sketchbook Pro, Brushes, Layers & Artstudio (havent tried yet)
about the workflow…well, i dont think there is any ‘flow’ in my workflow :D …since every software has different brushes and features, usually i use more than 1 or 2 softwares for each artwork, e.g. mostly i start with Sketchbook Pro then save the image in photo gallery, then import that image in Brushes and after working in Brushes i save the image again in the photo gallery and import the same image in Layers…sorry if it sounds confusing..will try to post the in depth info about all the 4 softwares soon…till then you can take a look at the following doodles..will post more, hopefully better than these since i’ve the ‘BoxWave’ stylus now :)

This portrait is from life….around 2 hrs.

some artists are already making history using iPad..have a look at the following link and the video…i bought the iPad just because of these two artists!

iPad vs Wacom Intuos vs Cintiq

Having recently embarked on the portable eletronic artpad quest- I found the following article quite insightful.

ipad vs Wacom vs Cintiq

My conclusion-
IF I am at my desk – save money stick with the Wacom ( even the Intuos 3 is plenty good already.) Personally- I don’t feel the need to buy a Cintiq.
IF I am on the move- the iPad is nice- but its still alot to get use to and the Pogo stylus is not as responsive as my fingers. I use the stylus mainly for erasing/ sculpting of patches I have laid down with my fingers.
There is always this fear of the Pogo’s aluminium barrel scraping the iPad screen. And the random markings that mars your workflow when your palm decides to draw too (solution is to wear gloves! )
