Version 6.0 is Here!!! Check out my latest update and final result here!
I got great feedback and support in my last endeavor in Version 6.0 and my next venture in life in Nampa, Idaho!  My Store Manager T.J. and ASM Dustin of Issaquah Lowe's #0140 backed me with a promise to mass produce my final map. Pictures will come soon and in the show case page soon! Check out my link above to see the final result!
In this next section we explore drawing and artwork in many forms, the creation, as well as the final piece! 

There are many ways to create the final piece, whether by drawing it from a sketch, creating and drawing on a wacom tablet. Even creating a full piece on the computer. Here is an example from start to finish starting from a sketch and finished and polished up in Adobe Photoshop and some final techniques in Adobe Illustrator. 
Here are some examples from my video above.

Here is another example from start to finish. However, I most of the work by hand and used color pencil to its final work. See how I broke down the original artwork from a piece fo art. I free hand drew the piece and colored in pencil. 
Here are some examples from my video above.

Here's another example of work where I put a lot of components together to create the final piece! I drew sketches in color pencil and scanned into Adobe Photoshop as a collage piece of artwork. I layered the final result into one piece.

12/30/21-Heres an example of a work I just completed. I took a sketch I did on the computer with a wacom tablet on your left. Free Hand drew the new version that is more proportionate. And finally, I used various permanent markers and photoshop technciques for the final work on your right. I spent most of the night preparing the sketch and morning to afternoon inking it ready for completion. Hope you like the results!

7/16/22-Here is a sketch I started in pencil and inked and colored in color pencil and marker. You see the difference between each medium. Each add something to the final piece. No matter what medium you use you get the same result and still works. 
7/18/22-This took some time to complete. I sketched it one day, inked and made the final touches this morning. This is an example of doing art from start to finish without any computer programs to finish it up. I think it turned out really good. 
7/22/22-I don't know if you recognize the first image but it ws the final from a couple images above. From the start I scanned the first image in low contrast and traced in Ink marker. I created this rendition in over a day, all day, and I think it shows the effort!
