eclectic artwork & other random things
I’ve been known to play a game or two on my phone when no one is looking. I’ve also been known to draw the characters in the games that I am playing on my phone when no one is looking. This is Gillie The… Continue Reading “Dewport Guard”
I’ve been drawing on my iPad as a hobby for several years now and always kinda liked it… kinda… but I never really loved drawing on my iPad until now. I heard a guy on YouTube say, “you HAVE TO HAVE some sort of… Continue Reading “Game Changer”
The quality of my sermon notes has risen dramatically since mandatory quarantine online church started and I’m watching from my computer that has a Wacom Cintiq attached to it…
Day three of dumping Procreate sketches onto this site. Here’s a spaceman… and you know what ya gotta do when you see a spaceman… ya gotta park in it, man!
I had a hankering (Missouri Speak) to make pictures on my iPhone Xr with the ProCreate Pocket App, but I needed some sort of fine tip stylus to draw with, so I dug around on Amazon, took a shot in the dark and ordered… Continue Reading “Meko Fine Tip Stylus”
In 2011, I got an INSTAGRAM account, but never really used it because it was a “phone-only” app and extremely difficult to post artwork with, but I just discovered a workaround and now I can post artwork directly to Instagram from my computer. Now… Continue Reading “Brand New Old Stuff!”
How do I spend a typical Sunday afternoon in the fall? I take a picture of my Sunday Morning Sermon Notes with the camera on my Wacom MobileStudio Pro 16, pull that picture into Photoshop CC, plop down in a recliner with the tablet on… Continue Reading “Embellishing Sermon Notes”

Here are a few of the steps I go through on most of my illustrations. Are you kitten me!?
Several years ago I did a job for Mission Hockey and as part of the payment process I received a bunch of their latest hockey gear. For some reason my wife is not fond of this sort of compensation package (she seems to be a big fan of hard… Continue Reading “My Surface Pro 4 Review”
Another quick picture (and video) I made on the iPad. I just discovered an option that lets you see the brush cursor as you paint in the ProCreate App… which doesn’t sound like a big deal, but for me was a game changer. Being able to see exactly what size your brush… Continue Reading “Digital Painting With Procreate”
…so I’m guessing the humidity OUTSIDE on Sunday afternoon was somewhere in the 600 bazillion percent range… so I made the smart decision and stayed INSIDE in the air conditioning and colored up this quick little picture on my iPad using the ProCreate app.
Over the years, I have purchased several types of styluses in a futile attempt to turn my Ipad into a fabulous, portable, mini Wacom Cintiq. I have finally come to the conclusion, (sadly)… that’s just never going to happen… but Wacom is making the Ipad… Continue Reading “Wacom Intuos Creative Stylus 2”
One of the reasons I like our church is because it has an ARTIST OUTREACH MINISTRY!! Included in each weeks bulletin is a piece of artist sketch paper (labeled “notes” for some odd reason) and a complimentary drawing pen! Not every church would make this sort of effort… Continue Reading “Artist Outreach Ministry”
