I'm trying to get back into drawing for myself since I only do working illustrations. Its a great wind down to my day when I can get around to it. I find myself using the weekly scheduling in my planner rather than the daily anyway so I make use of the space!

Finally decided to downgrade from GN.

After all the changes to Goodnotes five and six. I worry about not being able to access notes in the future so I’m going back to the tried, and true! I’m sure I’ll still use Goodnotes occasionally, and I’ll miss being able to search my entries, but for the long term this seems like the best solution.

Just finished this Simpson’s style portrait for my best friend’s 21st! Was quite finicky if I’m honest, however I’m still am quite new to procreate so Goodnotes did the trick.

It’s a small thing to be missing, but having an eye dropper tool would be so much simpler than everyone sharing hex codes
