cartoon: santa sighting (part 2 of 3)

sketch: cat sleeping

My cat looks like he is floating in space.  But no, he is just sleeping like an angel on the couch.

sketch: siberian cat

A quick sketch of one my cats, resting on the bed. It’s relaxing to draw cats, and they make excellent models.

sketch: day of the dead girl and cat

There once was a girl with perfect black hair.
who loved her cat which would run everywhere.
Both ran in the street,
A car made a screech.
They are still together, so don’t you despair.

I got an iPad, on release day, eager to try it as a new way of creating art. There are already several drawing apps to choose from, such as Brushes. I’ve tried Brushes for the iPhone, but this time, I decided to try out Sketchbook Pro. For my first exercise, I do quick sketch of my cat, sleeping. I am quite happy with the intuitive feel of drawing directly on a screen, as opposed to a Bamboo tablet method. This is definitely the way of the future. I only wish the iPad was invented earlier. For another exercise, I would love to use a stylus to achieve an even more accurate stroke.

This was a fun project for the holidays.  The goal was to indicate the feeling of Christmas without being too literal.  Plus, I wanted to create more action and adventure in my mini cartoon.
