Day one hundred and fifty-eight: After sketching a couple of ancient bottles in pencil yesterday, I wanted to try drawing another from the Museo de Arte Precolombino in more detail. This ceramic bottle is notable for the simplification of zoomorphic elements, including concentric circles that represent the snake’s scaly skin. Believe it or not, I painted this picture with only my fingertips on an iPad using a program called SketchBook Pro.
