Some examples of the pictures used in the video sequence.
Nine designs, eight colors
The video breaks down or merges elements of nine drawings that had been made in recent months as fixed compositions. Originally in black and white , these elements are sometimes immersed in a bath of colors that result of roughly eight different base tones.
Nine designs, eight colors
Eight of the drawings included in the video have already been presented in another article of the site.
This is the ninth.
Here are also a few snapshots from what the merging of drawings and colors results in.
... or strings?
More than a thousand drawings made "by hand" for three minutes of animated sequence...

Two examples chosen from the thousand drawings made on ipad for the animated sequence.
Compositions on Ipad
And here are new compositions entirely made on Ipad....
First tests on Ipad
Before, when we went on a trip, I carried my pencils and my block of drawing paper to make compositions that I scanned and colorized back home before animating them in the form of a video.
For our trip to Burma and Indonesia, I took my IPad Pro to familiarize myself with the techniques of drawing or digital painting on a tablet. Here is the result of these first tests that have not resulted in a video, at least for now.
Firstly, three compositions made of memory after the spectacle of a sunset on the Indian Ocean in tropical storm weather: a classic figurative version, then a version with more abstract forms and, finally, a very refined version.
Then other compositions using varied graphic and pictorial techniques.
