Figuring out This Digital Thing...

Here is a sketch, started in my sketchbook during a lazy Friday night, and built it up a bit in Photoshop.  I like this process a lot better than simply starting from scratch in PS, it helps keep things in perspective, so I don't just quit out of a digital drawing 2 hours in.

Sometimes it's good to just get the art blood flowing, even if it's not being used for anything specific.  Here is a finished self portrait,  I'll probably be using this one often.  Same process, all the line drawing done traditionally, then colored in PS.

 

As much as art frustrates me, there are times when I am so thankful for it, like tonight.  Not sure why so much tonight, but I am.  Thanks for stopping by.
