Hey Dudes!

Journal Entry: Sun May 4, 2008, 7:34 PM
Hey Dudes.


Does anyone have any good advice for sketching/painting/drawing on photoshop? My brush settings are wonky and I feel like I'm a little out of touch with the workings of this program. Mostly I'm looking for linework advice using a tablet. Every time I sketch on there my lines are shaky and look pixelated! D:
Anybody got any tutorials they can link to?

EDIT: Problem solved. My photoshop settings were all messed up (because of me) :B Though, Photoshop brush advice is still mighty appreciated!

I'm also just really bored and wanted to say "HI"... How you guys doin?

Did any of you watch "Hey Dude" on Nickelodeon when you were younger? My journal title just reminded me of it. I didn't really like the show.. "Salute Your Shorts" was better...

*yawn*

Thank you so much for the watch! I'm flattered you like my work and would love to talk art sometime.
I'll do my best to keep you entertained with new arts and interesting conversation! :heart:

I've only just stumbled onto your gallery, but I'm quite certain that it is one of my top ten favorite's I've seen. I love your whimsical, wistful style of illustration, your muted colors, and the art-nouveau look reminiscent of mucha. You capture what I long to create, and love to view.

I'd love to talk art sometime, if you are interested. I sense that we might have some interesting conversations.

Keep on creating so I can keep on watching :)

aww thank you! I've never heard anyone describe my style as "poetic". It's funny because I can't write poetry to save my life XD I'm happy to be able to draw it though. :aww:
Thanks for visiting!! :heart: :hug:

That's silly. Everyone knows the elusive Hannaconda only eats manatees. And elephants.
I'd be chewy and unpleasant.
