Grumpy Writer
By Jack Ruttan in digital, men, pencil, Portraits, sketchesAnd a lazy digital treatment. I’m learning more tricks, but am finding I get my best results when starting with a pencil drawing and scanning it in. I can draw with the stylus, but it takes a lot more time.

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, […]
