OK folks- what do you think? Scribbles from my iPad…..
This is one was created using the app I usually use, but it’s way too untidy:
….so I reverted to an app I used to use, which has more flexibility litt, and got a ‘cleaner’ result:
Now the weather is cooler, I could try the computer and use Photoshop, but I doubt it because it is very slow on my ageing Mac.

You were right; the second image Is easier on the eye.
Well, I think so!
I like the top one best. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
Each to their own!! I shall be interested to see what the general consensus is, Pete 😊
I just feel that the top one looks more like a detailed drawing, and the lower one a little ‘washed out’. Just me of course. 🙂
No, you have described the differences, and for me, I prefer a sketch to be more, well, sketchy!!
I get that too. Perhaps the top app should be described as an ‘illustration’ app rather than a ‘sketch’? 🙂
Ah, but you can do much more sketchy, really vague things with it as ŵell!
Top one for me too Sue. I like all the detail and in the second one you lose the interaction between the couple on the bench and the clock. Maybe more contrast on the second would work?
More contrast in the second was what I was trying to do, but no way I could get it to work…..😟
Fun to experiment. Much cooler your way now? And rain I hear.
Much cooler – I’m leaping around like a 5 year old……well, OK, no I’m not, but I’m moving around a lot better!! And rain….the plants will love it
I was leaping about WITH a 5 year old today. Tiring, I have to say 🙂 🙂 Not fussy on the second, Sue. I feel like I need to pick up a pencil. Or maybe a rubber on the first. 🙂
😀😀
Second one loose and sketchy, I like it
Loose and sketchy – exactly!
I like the first one, too, but I understand the appeal of the “less.”

As I said to someone, it takes us all in different ways!
Well…I’m torn between the two. I like some of the detail in the top one and the bottom one seems to have a very light tone of color, which is way cool.
Yes!
I actually like the first one. I don’t find it messy. Great sketch! MZ
Thanks, MZ!
I like the “detail” in the first one best. Kind of like a charcoal drawing as opposed to the cleaner pencil-like lines in the second.
Yes, I guess we all have different ideas as to which direction we like a sketch to go….
On my Affinity Photo program I use a high pass filter with similar results. Nice experiment, Sue!
A bit of fun, eh?
I love the first one best – details are my preference here!
Fair enough!
What are the two apps you used? I like the second more airy one.
IColorama was the second, the first is Sketchmaster
Thanks
The second one has a beautiful glossy look to it—like a filmy experience. That said, I like the grainy look of the first photo better. Although a little crowded, I love the detailing on it. Thanks for sharing both, though. It’s interesting how one photo has many facets.
It is indeed!
I’m afraid I refer the first by far!
Ah, a detail girl! Well, we all need to be different! I think I had to be a detail person for work, so since then I have frequently tended towards the less cluttered!!
Yes same for me at work, but in most kinds of art I like to be drawn in.
…and perhaps I like to be left guessing a bit! What’s the Story, Morning Glory??!!
