100 Themes Challenge

So I came across this blog with a 100 words challenge. I decided it would be a great way to practice using my tablet. The first word on the list is Introduction. Here is my take on that word:

The circus tent lines bother me. A lot. I need to improve my hand/eye coordination with my tablet. Finding some Photoshop tutorials to learn the tools couldn't hurt either. I did figure out how to use the shapes tool AND add a drop shadow! Exciting stuff. As always, thanks a bunch for taking a look.

Tried my hand at Digital Painting

And this is the result...

The best part......I had so much fun drawing and painting this guy with my bamboo Fun tablet. 

The worst part......Either he is the biggest squirrel ever or those are some really short trees! My husband said they could be broccoli instead of trees. Gotta love him for trying. I am off to work on perspective.

Oh but first I have to share this: 100 Themes Blog. There you will find a list of 100 themes to draw. I thought it would be a good idea to try when I don't know what to draw. I am working on 1. Introduction right now. I will post it when I finish it. 

I truly hope you are having a beautiful day.

Hugs, Dawn

Finished drawing this one a few days ago

I am not entirely happy with this one. But I like it well it enough. I need to work on values. I tend to start off too dark and then it is hard to adjust anything. I need to remember to use a light hand. 
Thanks for looking. I hope you are having a happy day :)
Hugs, Dawn
