So the biggest issue I’ve found with drawing on the iPad is that it’s simply impossible to achieve real precision. I did this sketch after letting go of the hope that I could ever get precise line work out of the damn thing.
In fairness, I’m drawing with my finger. I hear that some have done better with one of the cheap stylus(es?…styli?) one can buy. As they lack pressure sensitivity I am unconvinced of their importance.

My experiments to learn the skill set of my favorite artists continue. This one is a direct attempt to emulate Dave McKean.

The good news is that Kim’s going to be fine.
The bad news is I can’t believe my cat caused this.
One little scratch in the webbing between Kim’s thumb and first finger led to surgery because of infection.
One doctor told me that if we’d waited a couple more days she would have been at risk to loose her hand.

Well, it’s finished.
I do have to replace the midi marimba with Alan Fey’s fine playing, but this is sort of a preamble to a web series I hope to complete over the next 18 months or so.
This was the test drive for my camera, the Canon 7d, as well as an experiment in visual storytelling.
I hope you enjoy this 4 minute video featuring Jonathan Horne and Kim Barnes.

I know…you thought this project was dead because I haven’t mentioned it in a while.
Well, I’m working on a lot of stuff and I probably won’t put any of it out for a couple years, but here’s a teaser (in more ways than one).

The assignment was to compile photos and treat them using techniques discussed in class to make them look as though they belong together.
I used it as an excuse to mess with my idea for combining the techniques of Alex Maleev and Dave McKean, but I wish I’d had time to take the photos myself.

Sorry it’s been a while since the last post…
Been busy. Trying to figure out if my current 5 year plan can possibly work.
Right now it feels like all I do is draw, and write.
Here’s something I did last week.
