Drawing a Day 023-The birthday

Cartoon 3466 / Drawing a Day 23

Woman with cake to older woman, “Look, Ms. Goldie, I’m sorry I put, ‘Sweet eighty six and never been kissed,’ on your cake.”

Yes, birthdays are on my mind. I had one last week, so I’m the old woman, except I’m a middle aged guy.

I did this in pen and ink before taking it into Photoshop. There is a marked difference between this style and the last one I did. I waver between using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop for a cartoon. Illustrators has it’s advantages in that it is bold and graphic. I can blow it up and I don’t have to worry about an illustration getting pixelated. However, Photoshop allows me to put some texture in the illustration.

Let’s say they are like my kids; I love them both. Though if I had to make a choice, I’d choose my kids.

Dog with owner. Dog says to a cat, “He’s been a good owner once I got him on a routine.”

I scanned my pen and ink drawing into Adobe Illustrator. I used Live Trace and Live Paint to colorize the drawing.

Drawing a Day 020

Spear 3463, Drawing a Day #20

Cartoon: Boy to monster, “I know what you mean, when I was the new kid in school, I felt like I stood out too.”

I found this monster in one of my past sketchbooks and wondered what it would be like if he had to go back to school.

Drawing a Day 019

Spear 3462, Drawing a Day #19

Cartoon of three boys on a medals stand. One says, "Do we have to do this every time you win something?”

I have to do something while I’m watching the Olympics. This one came when I saw a few pouting faces as the medals were presented. Cheer up guys! There’s always four years from now.
