Introduction: Darren Stewart



So here goes, my first blog post, on a blog, in the blogosphere(thingy) and hopefully every Wednesday after this. I'll be posting a piece of art and probably a quick blogpost on various subjects like how-to's and random thoughts I have about the process. There's a good chance I'll be discussing what I think are good habits and bad habits, what I think should count as regular practice that sort of thing but I usually just draw mini comics, and little random drawings. The plan is to direct that into themes, or challenges each week. I never real picked up much from school or college when it comes to drawing so it's a learning experience all the time, feel free to offer any hints, tips or ask questions in the comments.

As far as how the art is produced, I tend to use a Wacom Bamboo tablet, and Photoshop for the majority of it, but it's not unheard of for me to draw something on paper and scan it in or paint over it later on. Painting is probably something I do the least though, it's a scary business... and there's no undo!

This was our first challenge, to draw ourself in our own preferred style, I hope you enjoy it!
