Does Steve Jobs really look like that? Well… that is how I see him.

Outline

Here is something new I’ve been working on this week. The outline was done with Adobe Illustrator. It started out as a life drawing sketch, a few weeks ago.

I have been working with a group of artists in Los Gatos, sketching live models. I use a pen tablet and software. Lately, my drawings have been getting more abstract.

These are from a life drawing class, yesterday. They are very spontaneous and I am putting them up because I think they show a change in direction.

Some painting from earlier this week. Software and stylus instead of pencil and paper.

Evolution

Once again, I saved intermediate steps and made a Flash to show how this piece evolved. From start to finish in six phases. Near the end, I added a few drops of black India ink.

Many of these images created over the last few years, such as the backgrounds for Twitter, or this site, were on black. These are On White. The Flash gives you an idea how the artwork evolves.

Holiday Glow

These swirled-paint textures were created as back-drops for a commercial HTML email system. You know, one of those "fancy emails" you get.

The bottom one was the back-drop for a holiday e-card. Mostly covered up by text, I put them here so you can see what they looked like.
