As extra-bright and bold as the colors and strokes are, ?he? still seems entirely real--though also a potential comic book character. <br /><br />I wonder if one answer to my questions the other day is the portability of the iPad compared to easels, etc. Is it in your head at all to convert some of these to paint on canvas or paper, somewhere down the road? <br /><br />By the way, in my one trip to Europe, a long time ago, the first leg of an 8-week travel "vacation" was standing on a train every inch of the way from Brussels to Paris. Inauspicious, but educational, I guess.
