Awhile ago, I did this pixel drawing of a penguin using the Pixen software. Here’s an painted version of the same sketch where I used Corel Painter, like I usually do.

Messed around with some character sketches this morning in order to loosen up a bit. Extra credit question: Which one has constipation issues…?

Sometime ago I downloaded a bundle of software from macheist.com, which included a neat little app called Snapz Pro X. With that I can video-capture my screen while I draw, so I decided to give that a go.

This is a little sketch that I penciled, lettered and inked digitally in Corel Painter X on my Wacom Cintiq 21UX. Very simple, but it shows the process.

I wanted to experiment a bit more with watercolors, so I painted this “Bear Attack” cartoon today.

The original cartoon art is for sale, if anyone’s interested. Just email me for details and this cartoon could be yours.
