I now have so many websites it’s not funny any more.
As this is the one where I post stuff that doesn’t fit any more, I’m going to wax lyrical about a piece of software called SketchBook. I have two versions of it. 1) the version for the iPhone and 2) a trial version for the proper computer. And I am in love with it.
I was wandering around the ImagineFX forum a while ago when I saw SketchBook Mobile recommended if you wanted to sketch on the go. Well I’d been dragging a sketchbook around along with 12 coloured pencils and doing nothing, so decided I’d have a look at this. It’s magical. I thought it was fantastic. I’m not what you’d call talented with a pencil or anything like this, but today, playing on my phone, I got this. It’s not anything major to write home about, but it’s a starting point for something I do want to do.
It’s drawn on a mobile phone using my fingers. I love the whole idea of it so since I have a graphics tablet, i went looking to see if there was a PC version of it. There is. I have a demo and a whole lot of ideas. So many, in fact, I’m bursting. But I’ll need to finish off the fairy queen above. With the mad hair and all.
I was looking into the idea of doing a 365 sketch thing. I haven’t worked out the practicalities of it all since I currently run 4 blogs and am looking at adding another one or two. Where I think I’m going to get time is open to debate.
It is, however, nice to think about the idea of doing the sketches on the phone every morning when I wake up and pushing the sketching practice that way. My mother thinks I’m mad.
In addition to that, and more tied into the photomanipulation art which I do, (and which you will find here on digitalFX if you haven’t found it yet) is a top secret ebook project which will have a blog thrown at it. I don’t know how I am going to push it yet but on the list of stuff to do tomorrow is the domain name and stuff.
I basically need a workblog so that’s going to be done, and hopefully enable me to organise all this stuff. Eeek.
