A Digitally Painted Mermaid, before and after getting a stylus for detail

 There is a painting app, called Hello Watercolor, that I have enjoyed using on my iPad.  There are several brushes, pencils, erasers, and pencils that have a real life effect.  

But, my old iPad wasn’t compatible with a stylus, and the entire picture had to be done with my finger.  It could get frustrating with the details.

I recently bought myself a brand new iPad, that is a huge improvement over my old one.  And my sis, Terry, gifted me with a stylus!

This is how the mermaid looked with just finger painting.

And here she is using a stylus. The extra detail that I can get makes me happy!

90% of the painting is still done with my finger, but that pen makes all of the difference when I got to the pupils and eyelashes.

Thanks, Terry!
