This kid is annoying me, because he’s on an ad on the iPad I can’t turn off.

Mumble… Million Years B.C.

A perfectly scientifically accurate portrayal of a prehistoric scene. I liked those movies.

Digital Portrait

By in color, digital, heads, men

Feeling much more confident about my digital painting skills. As always, this is an ongoing journey. Not perfect. Below is the reference photo. I actually feel happier just making things up, but the snap does give you a better idea of the colours. I’m not really a fan of the “super-realistic” look. Would rather have […]

Digital Dallying.

By in color, digital, women

I’m reasonably pleased with how digital painting is progressing. Takes a different skill set to work with the stylus, and the program. Colour’s never been my strong suit, but I’ve learned things in watercolour to make images bright and interesting, and am learning the same thing here, I hope. All the tutorials on Deviantart.com and […]

Back at the Comic Jam

By in collaboration, color, pen and ink, Rick Gagnon, sketches, watercolor, watercolour

Hadn’t been to the Montreal Monthly Comic Jam for a while. My pal Rick Gagnon invited me over, so I decided to make the effort. Pleasant seeing Rick again. He embellished a couple of drawings of mine. The watercolour is especially great, because he did this (using my paints) in very low light, where it’s […]

Painted clematis spilling over the newel post, while sitting on my friend’s porch.
