By Jack Ruttan in color, digitalI’m probably being very boring banging on about digital painting. The drawing just isn’t quite there when I draw things right on the computer rather than scanning-in drawings done in pencil and then coloured here. But I’ve been working hard on these sorts of things, so I may as well share them. Any opinions or […]
Hoodie Guy
By Jack Ruttan in digital, paintings, sketchesThis is actually all digital, drawn with this set of brushes here. I’ve been doing a lot of digital drawing, but have been nervous about putting it up. Much harder to draw digitally, I think, because of all the planning you need to do. I can draw on paper with pencils and watercolours, and some […]
Spaceships for Beginners
By Jack Ruttan in digital, paintingsI painted some spaceships today, according to this guy’s instructions. May not do it again this way, but I learned a few things.

This is always hard because I’m never certain about my work. Also, it’s been a bit […]
Digital Watercolours
By Jack Ruttan in digital, paintings, sketches, watercolor, watercolourKyle Webster has an excellent selection of digital brushes that work with Photoshop. Here’s an early effort. It’s a pretty good facsimile of something I could have knocked out in a couple of minutes (minus drying time) in “traditional media,” but it’s nice to have these tools.
Digital Dalliance
By Jack Ruttan in color, digital, heads, womenI hope I’m not wasting my time trying to paint digitally. My line, which I think looks nice enough in watercolour or little pen and ink drawings, to me doesn’t look so appealing in digital. Still, this post gives me hope. It’s from a “famous” digital artist, discussing how her drawing has improved over the […]
Tiger, Tiger
