Further Digital People
By Jack Ruttan in color, digital, sketchesDigital is like pen and ink, in that it’s hard to know when to let go of something. There’s always one other little improvement to make. Happily, I seem to have tamed my stylus, which was giving me all sorts of headaches, like a pencil nib that keeps breaking off, or a pen that blobs, […]
