Slow And Not So Steady

This moved forward a little tiny bit.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Perhaps, Some Color

I didn't get very far on this, but I thought it might be cool to re-visit the Wizard of Oz sketches I did a while back. A bit of color. A spot of clean up. Bit by bit we will get... somewhere.

Thank you "Red Dead Redemption" for helping me

remember how much I love the old west.

Invading The iPad

I know what you are thinking. "Why is Jeremy posting a little kid's drawings on his blog?" Well, I am that little kid, and these are examples of me getting comfortable drawing on my shiny new iPad. Did I need an iPad? Nope. Is it beautiful and my new best friend? Yep. As of now I am not able to produce much more than a scribble, but I do feel like once I get used to the tools I will expand my mobile horizons a bit.

Yeah, I am a nerd. I accept that.

Busy Week = Post It Scribbles

Oh, Post-It

Ninja Juice Glass

This is a little doodle I did after listening to my son

describe where his juice cup was. 

I will see if I can remember how it went...

"Hey Aidan, where's your juice cup?"

"Well, I don't see it. I think monsters wanted my juice cup

and my sister's juice cup. They must have come and

taken them. Yeah, I think it was monsters. But then

you and I will dress as ninjas and stop them.

Yeah, ninjas on skateboards."

I forgot to draw the skate boards.

Party Friday

A quick scribble... and he's happy it's Friday.

Have a great weekend everybody!

Shaken, Not Stirred

From Twitter: @artedejavier said "Draw penguins! Or chubby kids!"

Here you go man. I was able to quickly sketch out a well

dressed penguin. No chubby kids yet. Come to think of it,

I should have drawn a chubby kid penguin. Next time!

Thanks again for all of the good suggestions!

It's Cookie Time

Last night, I asked for blog topics via Twitter. @RacattackForce  suggested "kids sharing a cookie with a giant robot." I didn't get as far as two kids, but there is some cookie sharing going on.

I thank all of you who responded. I will try to get to all of the suggestions. I really like how this worked out, and will be sure to ask my Twitter pals for topics more often. (It pays to be my Twitter friend, see!)

A happy Monday to you all.

Another Quickie...

I seem to keep finding new levels of "busy."

My Photoshop Sketching Brush

I get asked a lot about the brushes that I use in Photoshop. I have often said that I only use one or two brushes in each program, and this still holds true. This brush is my "go to" brush when I want to rough out ideas, or sketch up something quickly. It is a standard brush, and comes in the box ready to go. The trick for me is using the pressure sensitivity of my tablet to dictate my line size and opacity.

You can see above how this creates a "buildup" of opacity, just as a pencil would in real life. As usual, the finer the detail, the smaller the brush. This brush also serves as a good "quick color" tool at larger sizes.

Nothing groundbreaking here, but I did want to let you know what I was using. With Photoshop, the trick is to make it work for you, not the other way around. Spend some time to find tools that fit your drawing style, and save those puppies!
