Looking back on the art I’ve been making for the past few months I’ve done quite a bit of digital work. I started really delving into Procreate when we went on Vacation earlier this year, and I haven’t stopped exploring the possibilities since. While planning for our vacation in late February and early March of his year I opted to take only my camera and iPad. No knitting, no sketch book, no art supplies. This was the first time I’d ever taken only my iPad, with the intent of creating art while on a vacation. I had a plan to limit my supplies and challenge myself to only using procreate. My plan worked, I learned a lot about procreate and I enjoyed to process. The biggest thing I learned was how very freeing being able to sit on the couch or the porch at night with just an iPad and a pencil was. There was no figuring out where to put supplies, or how to juggle a sketchbook on my lap, or being confined to the table. The other bonus ...
The photography is all original and all mine. Photographs have been printed with a Cannon Selph printer that uses thermal dye-sublimation to print images on heat-sensitive paper. The images are touted by Canon to have an extremely long 100-year print longevity when stored properly.
The selection of cards at Rika's will be exclusively Alaskan, taken during our 9 years of living in Alaska.
I plan to expand this line into the online shop soon. I'll be including more locations with the online photo cards. I've been a scenic photographer since high school and will be including shots from our travels and other states we've lived in.
