Family Pictures...not mine....



Here are some picture I did recently for the Jr High group I help lead at my church. Actually, I was put in charge of doing a flier, but I figured since I'm putting out something people will see, why not put some art on it! Spruce it up some. I learned a lot while doing these.....mostly that I'm just terrible at inking. I used technical pens for the entire thing, after a failed practice attempt with ink and brush. To me, you're not really inking unless you're using a brush....so I guess I'll never be an inker. Oh well. Hope you like these. There's definitely evidence of Sean "Cheeks" Galloway seeping into my art these days. like music, my favourite artist seems to be changing weekly. I really like Cheeks art, his ability to show character through shapes. Something I want to try to do. And also the energy in his art. http://cheeks-74.deviantart.com/ If you want to see his art. Really cool stuff!

Another pic

I spent a lot of yesterday drawing....which I've actually been doing almost every day for a while, so that's good.
Something else that I did yesterday was to finally buy 'The Iron Giant'! Such a great movie. My new favourite. If you haven't seen this animated film, then you're really missing out. Great animation and great story that really pulls you in. Well, that's all for now.

Foolin' around with the Compy




I've been getting into computer art in the last little while....and when I find an interest in something, I tend to focus on that, and let everything else slide....like drawing....with a pencil........on physical paper. But oh well. I'll get used to it, and hopefully do both. I'm thinking about getting an Wacom Intuos tablet. If anybody has anything to say about that, good or bad, let me know. I've used the Wacom Graphire tablet, and that was good, but is it really worth the extra coin for it?

Anyway, this is my very first photo editing jobs. I'm proud of it. I don't think anybody would mistake it for anything but a photo edit, but I like it. I just hope my buddy doesn't mind. Hehehe.

I'll also be very busy during the summer with school and work. This isn't an excuse for me not posting things. On the contrary. I hope to be doing more improved drawings, and I'll be showcasing them here. If all goes as planned...which it never does. Anywho, later!
