I haven't done shading in my sketches for more than 25 years. Always felt like it could put the lines at risk of becoming unreadable. It is strange how we creatively change over time.

wow new art. honestly I have no idea how this one survived, with a power outage literally 10 minutes before I was done, which eradicated 5 crucial layers.

real paper doodles. different pens. I'm ashamed to admit that often the 5 bucks cheap one can compete with premium ink pens. To a certain degree, it's just not about the pen.

Donald Kingsbury sf-encyclopedia.com/entry/kingsb... was born on this day, so here's some related artwork (artist: Sparth, David B Mattingly, Paul Orban and Chris Foss). The 2nd is the cover art for "The Moon Goddess and the Son"; the 3rd from the June 1952 issue of Astounding for "The Ghost Town":

First test done with this awesome iPad Feather3d app. I admit having way too much fun there, especially for imaginary architecture layouts. It's also super pleasant to try the surfacing features and patterns. A small learning curve, but once it clicks, everything starts to make sense. #feather3d

Procreate Pocket iPhone sketch. Painting on an iPhone has its quirks and challenges, but for some reasons the limitations are weirdly addictive.

saw a 'post a monster' type post, somewhere

drawing of a tropical dragon in a jungle swamp with palm trees. the dragon is yellow, iguana-dinosaur-fish-like, with vestigial wings. he has puffs of smoke coming out of his nose.

Real paper and ink sketches. A few months ago, Peter Han gave me a Karrapo pen. Finally gave it a more extended try with a full page, and wow I'm loving it. I need to buy more.
