My friend Tom Curtis's son is turning 5 in a couple of days. On his cake he wanted an image with a very specific image. This is the description that I got, "He wants a picture of a secret spy agent (sunglasses and very covert), who is on the ceiling with suction cups on his hands and feet. He is looking down on a bad agent guy with laser eyes who is trying to 'get' him with the laser eyes." I hope he likes it.

I just got the trial version of CS5 at Sony to try out and present to the studio. I've been playing with the brushes this morning and there are some really cool additions. Anyone familiar with the Photoshop kingdom knows that we've been waiting for this for a long time! The brush bristles now follow the direction of the line. Photoshop now dynamically tracks the angle of your stylus and interprets it like this.

Quick sketch - about 10 minutes. Great subject to draw

I don't know if there is any use for this yet, but I was drawing on my cintiq at work when Andy bumped the mouse on the desk and it made a cool blip pattern. This design here was made by moving my mouse while drawing a straight line with my stylus. If you have access to a cintiq or WACOM tablet, try it out. It just might be useful for something...

Here are some watercolors from a dog park we visited last Friday.

For Sketchclub a couple of weeks ago we went to a skate park and I struggled my way through these bits. There are a couple that I like. Its fun to shake things up though, normally we go to Daphne's Greek Cafe and draw the people in the restaurant. It was a nice change of pace to draw kids in motion.
