Trying out different ways in Illustrator to get vectors easily for a manual feel from hand made sketches.

My last test on a hand made paper drawing did capture vectors quite well on the Illustrator version on Ipad. 

This time I also tested "Vector mode" in Firefly asking it to make it into vector with many different interpretations as a result.

@Sara 2023 practice. practice, practice. Many of my students and friends who uses the iPads for drawing always jokes with me to draw from the elbow and shoulders, focus on moving your entire arm instead of just your wrist and fingers. This creates smoother, more confident strokes! Experiment with the stylus. I prefer the Logitech Crayon over the Apple Pencil for the grip, but others prefer the slick grip?! Good luck and have fun experimenting!
