“Cheers Old Friend!”

Here is another video of me drawing a quick sketch and coloring it in Autodesk SketchBook Pro software. I am using a Wacom Cintiq digital tablet screen on this one.
A wonderful tool which I can wholeheartedly recommend to any professional illustrator, graphic designer or cartoonist.

I made occasional cuts to stay within the 10 minute length limit imposed by YouTube so the drawing jumps along miraculously a few times, but I hope the steps I took are still clear.

As always I am posting the finished drawing below. I hope you enjoy the video.

Both the videos and the final artwork will be posted here in the blog.

In today’s episode it is only Ashley telling me what to draw as Joanna was out playing with her friends.
We are drawing two things – one a sunny side up egg with a top hat doing a little dance number, and secondly a fuzzy monkey riding a purple flying banana. There were some unexpected interruptions by two- and four-legged friends and neighbors and a parade of characters walked through my studio as we were trying to maintain our usual Fellini-esque production standards, therefore 30 seconds from the middle of the video have been left on the cutting room floor, to safeguard the esteemed viewers sanity.
