Hi everybody,

well, thought i might as well start a sketchbook thread here, I'm planning on trying to post as much of my art as i can here. i've been a caricature artist for a few year's so I'm sure you'll see a lot of that in my stuff.try to update as often as possible. thanks for taking a peek

Definitely prefer the paper-sketchbook stuff -- that first one in particular.

I'm going through a similar attempt at transition. I'm *loving* the experience of painting with Photoshop, but I can't seem to get the same sharp incisiveness, particularly of line work.

The old hands make it looks so damned easy!

here's another one of those pics started by a big scribble, trying a lot of stuff with textures and custom brushes.

thanks for the comment stoat, always trying to improve that digital stuff
