Creativity Post 3

 This week for blog post 3 I wanted to find an exercise that would help me boost some creativity and thinking along with helping me get used to my new iPad, I am not familiar with Apple products so now drawing on one, with an apple pencil, has become a huge learning curve, however I'm quite excited to adapt to it. While searching online I came across a site that primairly has courses, classes, and blogs all to help digital and traditional artists to help build up their line confidence. These are exercises that I am used to, typically have been used for practicing line art with a traditional inking pen and paper- however now Id be using it for a digital purpose. With the apple pencil things are a lot smoother and glide more than a typical stylus, which has been the biggest learning curve so far!

I chose exercise 3 for this week, however many of these are very useful, and help you build muscle memory in your wrist, along with helping you familiarize yourself with your drawing utensil. Exercise 3 has you doodle 3 fairly simple lines, and then going in at different paces to create straight and stabilized lines completely by hand (without a stabilizer) this is important to learn, as it helps you get used to what you are drawing on/with along with building line confidence to strengthen ones line work.

Here on sketchbook, as I wanted to completely freehand this without adobe's more digital tool based aspects, I created a small tutorial page on doing the explained prompt.
