"Shapes" eBook WIP:

As I conquer the nuances of my Sketchbook Pro app, I think my work will show serious improvement. But I still would like more functionality that it seems only Photoshop can provide.... Here are some excerpts from my eBook called "Shapes". I'm still sketching out the second book.... Little baby steps!



This eBook will be available on the UTales app when it is released for iPhones and iPads. 25% of the cost for this book will be donated to Pencils of Promise, where $3.00 will buy a day of education for a child in one of their schools located in Asia or Latin America. Hope you will check it out when it comes out!

IF: Safari

I've been a bit lax with my work lately, and this week's Illustration Friday challenge just inspired me back into it!
These two little critters (Blue tongue lizards) can be found on an outback safari and they want to say "Crikey!" in an attempt to pay homage to one of the world's great explorers and conservationists, Steve Irwin. Done digitally, on my iPad - I now use my iPad as a sketchbook and am in the process of teaching myself the latest version of Photoshop and the rest of the CS5.
In other news, I have now almost finished publishing my first iPad app book on UTales Beta, which is sure to pique some interest once it is released! I have to complete artwork for my two iPad books called "Shapes" and "Baby Bop" for ages 0-2. I am now working on my two other books (ages 3-5) born from the Sketchbook Project in the "Kavya's Adventures" series and am also still developing artwork for my Biligual books.... So at least I haven't been totally goofing off! Will get samples posted online for comments....
