Digital Sketches

Some update on my work in progress for the final output for this residency. During the group critics session both Liz and Celina mention about my practice on sketching digitally and they found that is interesting. I never thought about it until they mention it during the session. I did use a physical sketchbook last time but now it is much more easier for me to just bring my iPad everywhere I go and have multiple sketchbook inside one device. Here is some screen shot on my digital sketchbook.

I mostly use an application called Paper on my iPad to put down my notes or do some quick sketches. Really handy.

I’ve done some sketched based on what I have in mind for my final output but I would still like to explore more about the shapes and motives that I will be using. Here is some of the sketches.
