Pencil sketching
When I got an iPad Pro and an Apple Pencil, I wanted to try out how drawing would work. Turns out, it works pretty well – at least if you want to call "tracing on top of a reference image" a drawing?


iPad Pro + Apple Pencil
For the illustration above, I used the Procreate app, and yes, I had a photo as an underlying reference. My wife calls it cheating, and perhaps she's right. However, there's no way I could have created this kind of image otherwise.
Photo vs. illustration
Drag the handle in the image to see the original photo and what I then added on top.
