Jokingly branded a fossil, preferring to direct his designers in AutoCad rather than to finger the keyboard himself, a revolutionary change occurred when he had started using the iPad, initially for games.

Brian first discovered drawing on the iPad with his son, who used various applications to animate his scrawls. Finding that he did no longer had to rush to the specialists’ supplies to pick up paints and prepare canvases, clean paintbrushes and palettes whenever he felt the urge to paint, Brian progressed in search for the  “ state of the art” application to showcase his talent in figurative , realistic and abstract art.

Sketchbook Pro proved to be just THE application.  Sensitive proactive  and highly versatile with its spectrum of tools and palettes, every nuance and details of his “brushstrokes” can be captured with the added dimensions of light and animation. The iPad is now Brian’s portable studio. Portraits, landscapes, and fantasies emerge as naturally as the sketches of furniture, interiors, and project drawings, and is his main tool for presentations.
