Alien critter


I recently scanned tons of old drawings and sketches to archive them digitally and get rid of the paper. This guy was hiding out there. I think I was inspired by designs for Planet 51, so there are some similarities.

A Stuffed Dog


Inspired by Eugene Field's poem "The Duel." It was kind of tough--I haven't "painted" in a long time.

It's called a KILT.


Last December my wife bought me an iPad. I like it. I like it a lot. Determined for it to be a productive tool, I promptly downloaded Angry Birds. In an effort to turn my iPad back to it's full artistic potential, I tried dozens of drawing/notepad apps. I liked Wacom's Bamboo paper. It was fun  but a little too limited. I read a review of Procreate by Savage Interactive and liked what I saw. I determined to wait them out for a price drop. I finally broke down and and shelled out five whole dollars to buy it. Best five bucks I've spent in a long time! This Little fellow was my first real test run of Procreate. It really does make drawing on an iPad fun whether you use your finger or a stylus. And it is easily 10 times more responsive than even the simplest drawing apps I tried out. I highly recommend it. (BTW, feel free to download this guy if you want him to grace your desktop.)
