Journal Sketch : 4-2008

Computer Sketch: 4-2008

Here is my very first attempt at drawing with my wacom tablet. This sketch was created in Illustrator. I'm not overly happy with it - on its own it's okay but, when looking at the the journal sketch that one has much more life. Maybe adding in the colors takes away from the real quality making it seem a bit more cartoon. More work ahead of me!

blog beginnings

I work as a graphic designer from home and don't have much day-to-day artistic contact. I find that my daily tasks only allow for small creative spurts instead of creative explosions. I hope that starting this blog will make me feel less isolated artistically as well as provide a venue for experimenting with design ideas and sketches and post new paintings. I would like to gain experience and get comfortable using my wacom tablet I received almost 2 years ago. So here goes. This will be an outlet for my unofficial creative journal.
