Here's a little process on a drawing I did the other day.




I've found that I really love working in colored pencil just because of the lack of smearing by my being left handed.  I've also discovered how much I like to ink with a brush.
I then used colored pencil.
Then onto photoshop and wacom.  One of the reasons I wanted to share this was to show that those doodles and sketches you might line the sides of your paper with that you might throw away or think you need to redo on a sheet or real drawing paper can actually turn into something pretty nice.

Fugazi Poster

This mornings music mix consisted of Radiohead, Daft Punk, OFF!, The Hives, Jay-Z, and Fugazi.  It got my brain percolating.  I wanted to make a poster. First I found some images, drew them up in ink. I threw them into photoshop, and with a little Wacom magic, whala!  It's fun making posters for bands who don't need them.

Illustration Friday: Hidden

AKA Garden of the Gods and Cats. I've been working on this on an off for a few weeks but decided to submit it to illustration friday.  This week's word is hidden so I thought this was appropriate.  One of the things I really like to do is go garage sale-ing for cheap prints that people don't want anymore (for instance, this colored picture of Garden of the Gods cost me $1 with a wonderful gold frame) and then paint something into them.  After I made a few of these, I learned that some artists call this detournement.   I just like making them.
