Brazil Kids Art lesson!
We learned about the country of Brazil, the Amazon rain forest and artist Romero Britto today.
We started off class learning about Romero Britto, a Brazilian Neo-Pop artist whose work really resonates with children. I’ve attached several examples here:
Then we created our own Romero Britto inspired art using crayola markers and black line work.
We also learned about the Scarlet Macaw and the Brazilian carnival.
We even made our own carnival headdresses!

I visited a children’s book conference in the North of Michigan this past weekend and spent most of it sketching and listening. I’m not going to review the conference, but I’ve posted a few of the sketches I did (mostly of speakers but some audience members). You can also see the layout of my portfolio things which were on display during the weekend.
I really should mention though, that I did really enjoy painting in a butterfly garden (the watercolour & ink above) and getting to know a few really awesome people.

Homer’s epic poem The Odyssey is a classic adventure filled with shipwrecks, feuds, obstacles, mythical creatures, and divine interventions. But how to visualize the thrilling voyage?
The map below traces Odysseus’s travel as recounted to the Phaeacians near the end of his wandering across the Mediterranean. Odysseus’s ten-year trek began in Asia Minor at the fallen city of Troy (the green marker) following the end of the Trojan War. His ultimate destination: his home in Ithaca (the red marker). Click the markers for information on each step of his journey. It is important to note that the 14 locations plotted on this map have been widely debated by both ancient and modern scholars.
Barry Powell, translator of a new edition of The Odyssey, asserts that the currently agreed upon location of the Island of the Sun (#11) is in fact modern-day Sicily. However, the characters in The Odyssey are in “never-never land,” and consequently, the locations plotted cannot be deemed entirely accurate.

Barry B. Powell is Halls-Bascom Professor of Classics Emeritus at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. His new free verse translation of The Odyssey was published by Oxford University Press in 2014. His translation of The Iliad was published by Oxford University Press in 2013.

While Maddy Kettle is already underway my editor asked me to revisit some scenes and refine them. So I took scans of the most recent marker and paper thumbnail draft and started drawing over top of them on the Cintiq using Photoshop. I found this a really useful process as I felt totally free to try different things without feeling tied down to a composition.
Here's page one. On the left is the version drawn on the Cintiq and on the right is the original drawn on paper with marker. My intent on page one was to just tweak it but I found myself redrawing it entirely and in the process discovering how static the original composition is.I ended up erasing the whole image and replacing it.
And this is page three, again the new version on the left and the old on the right. Here is an example of me tweaking a page digitally rather than redoing the whole thing. Because I can zoom in I found I could define actions better, hand gestures and head tilts that I find difficult otherwise in this stage of the process.
Please don't think I'm suggesting the Cintiq is the best tool for drawing period. I find I'm taking to it quickly and it's very suitable for the kind of work I'm doing right now.

Here are some more sketches from the webcomic I'm working on, Tales of the Shadow Talker. At the moment I'm penciling it, it's actually really hard to pencil because it depends on some more mundane imagery than say, The Situation or Maddy Kettle. It's a supernatural story where the supernatural elements intrude into the mundane world and a young girls life so I'm using mundane imagery to emphasize it. A lot of the scenery is actually pretty Gothic looking. It takes place in North West farm country and I'm really pushing the Gothic elements, big old buildings, tangled forests, overgrown graveyards. Really fun stuff to draw.
I'm currently considering ho to ink it. I want the darks to be quite dense and the balance of colours to be almost graphic and I would find this hard with the Micron Markers I used on Maddy and on The Situation. It just takes forever to ink that way with a marker. I'm considering using crowquill, which is also work intensive but might suit the book. Also, I'm looking at digital inking, which might get me closest to the effect I want. I'll be playing with a friends tablet for the next little while to see what I think ( Thanks Drazen!). I'll post about the results here.

Trying out some new tools, like a huge fat marker and thick Pentel Sign Pens. I'm looking for ways to draw faster. I'll probably talk more about this in other posts. I'll also probably post a proper scan of this eventually.

Listened to The Hobbit audiobook on the way to Halifax over the Holidays and it struck me how much I prefer drawing bald dwarfs than hairy ones. I think they look more like rocks this way.

Avery quick sketch I did with Copic Markers and Photoshop. I drew this while watching Batman Brave and the Bold over breakfast (Kashi cereal). I've left in the mistakes because it's a sketch. If you don't see any mistakes than I meant everything.
Currently pushing to finish pencils on The situation. Almost there!! I'm feeling a bit fatigued from working on this and working part time. I'm a wimp though.
On breaks I work on the robot museum outline. It's going really well. I'd love to do an epic, multi book series of the robot Museum. A long Space Opera series with different characters. I can't think of a better way to explore ideas and stories.
Currently reading Jupiter by Ben Bova and The Man in The High Castle by Philip K Dick. Both great books. The Dick book is a bit slow but that's likely because I've read so many alternate history stories since. The Ben Bova book is an audiobook. It's well performed but I'm getting tired of audiobooks. The reader always imparts something disagreeable to me that wouldn't be present if I was reading it myself.
I'm actually reading more and more books on my iPod. It's habit forming. It's so easy to read anywhere. Anywhere but glaring sunlight.So now I always have an iPod book, an audiobook and a paper book on the go....

Yeesh! Thought I'd lost this one but I had saved it to an external disc. This is me still playing with sketches on Photoshop. I was pleased with the contrast.I hope you all don't think I'm being indulgent by posting all my experiments.This stuff is so much fun to do.

Here's another panel from Caribou 1. Again using materials unusual to me: acrylic paint, white out and markers.
My computer dies again yesterday. trying to sort out what to do today. I want to buy a second hand iMac....

Here's a page from a comic I've been drawing in my spare time called Caribou 1. I still need to work on it in Photoshop adding stars and effects and tones but this is how it looks now. I did it all in marker, whiteout, acrylic paint and black ink and brush. At the moment I just plan to do a 10 page story.

Man, you are talented. The short poses were always tough for me. I love 6 and 10. That foot is awesome. I like the pose. You usually don't see back poses like that too often. Nicely done! Thanks for sharing them.
