I stole the pattern for the background from my Dover Book of Ornament. Which was fun to do.

Digitally Blonde
By Jack Ruttan in digitalDespite difficulties with hardware, I’m very happy with how the digital work seems to be progressing. Colours are a hard thing to get around, mainly because the palette here is potentially infinite. I’m also getting better at fixing things up, because the line of the stylus rarely goes where you want it to, so you […]
Digital Dame
By Jack Ruttan in digital, heads, womenDigital painting, on the bigger computer again. Trying to do what’s called “glazing,” using my “natural brushes.”
Quick Cyclops
By Jack Ruttan in color, digitalDarn. So much more to share. I used to post everything I drew/created! Oh well, here’s this guy.
Colour Schemes
By Jack Ruttan in color, digital, sketchesThis morning I doodled four very tiny (one by two inch) rectangles on my computer, just trying different colours, and seeing how they go together. One nice thing about the computer is that it has an infinite colour palette. I’m going to try this again, looking at some interesting old paintings in books, or on […]
Random 3D Stuff
By Jack Ruttan in Blender 3D, digitalSome silliness I made in Blender. Still a long ways to go with this program, but I’m pleased with what I can do so far.

Blender 3D
By Jack Ruttan in digital, sketchesBlender is an open-source 3D modelling program which is quite amazing, if intimidating. I’ve been watching Youtube tutorials, and by practicing a lot, am able to model some simple things, which will help with my storyboards and other drawing. It reminds me a little of putting together the model kits I used to build as […]
Notebook Computer
By Jack Ruttan in color, Coloured Pencils, digital, Portraits, sketches, watercolor, watercolour, womenMy little notebook computer is great. But it’s a little silly to use, sometimes, as this guy demonstrates. He’s drawn in melty watercolour pencils and (I didn’t realise it at the time), melty black/purple roller pen. This is a Regency little girl, inspired by Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. Of course, the real little girl […]
