Well last night I stayed up too late involved in the pleasures of real paint so tonight it's a very quick digital finger painting before I fall into bed.

iDraw: No Sense of Harmony, No Sense of Time

The song then continues "And I'm blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, blind", which is what I was when I made this drawing. Right-handed, though.

iDraw: Finally Some Good News!

It's amazing how hard it is to draw a smiling face that doesn't look like a maniacal clown or stupified dope-head!

iDraw: Big-Headed Shadow

iDraw: Little Bootsie

An homage to Liz Mamorsky's Big Bootsie. They say Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so you already know I think her sculptures are fantastic and you should check them out!

iDraw: Borrowed Birthday Balloon Hat

How could I possibly resist it?

iDraw: I Want To Be A Artist When I Grow Up

iDraw: The Little Princess - ala Warhol

iDraw: I Imagined Myself as Edith Head

We've been having a Columbo fest, and I've been meaning to draw myself as Columbo, but tonight I couldn't resist Hollywood costume designer Edith Head, who made a guest appearance as herself on the Columbo episode we watched this evening. Seeing her we also realized that Edith clearly was the inspiration for the costume designer Edna in The Incredibles.

iDraw: Trouble in Mind, I'm Blue...

.. but I won't be blue always...

iDraw: When I'm Determined...

...I understand I can be a bit intimidating.

iDraw: Not Quite Awake

And not quite in the frame, either. Still, a serviceable drawing.

iDraw: It Makes Me Mad!

iDraw: I Wonder What Tomorrow Will Bring

iDraw: Bumpy BART Ride

iDraw: I Tried to Wait Patiently on the UPS Pick-up Line

But how many packages do they misplace every day? (They had mine but two other people were having difficulties) Well, I kept myself entertained making this drawing!

In any event, thank you to Laura for the Buffy comics - just about my speed these days!

iDraw: Squinting in the Mirror

Is it time for new glasses?

iDraw: Even With a Day Off, It Was a Long Week!

iDraw: Black Hooded Raincoat, Rainy Day

iDraw: A Touch of Mink

In honor of Halloween I imagined myself costumed for the Bergdorf Goodman fashion show in the 1962 Doris Day/Cary Grant flick 'A Touch of Mink' that we watched this evening. Kudos to AK for suggesting it!

iDraw: This Morning in the Ladies' Room Mirror at School

iDraw: Primary Colors

Mouseover to see an earlier state - sort of a cross between me and Mo from Dykes to Watch Out For.

iDraw: Help, I'm Stuck in an iPod!

A little Picasso, a little Miro, a little Kay.

iDraw: I Greet a Fresh New Week!

iDraw: Thick and Thin with Colors

This was done this evening using Colors, the lastest drawing ap for the iPhone/iPod Touch. Warning: the rest of these comments are my ongoing review of the different drawing/ painting aps for the iPod Touch - if you're not a drawing geek, you can stop here.

In any event, Colors has this neat feature where you can tilt the device to simulate pressure sensitivity so you can get a fluidly changing line thickness. In all other ways though I find Brushes to be a far superior ap for 'painting' on the iPod Touch. Colors also has some incredibly annoying interface features, such as the fact that if you change colors and draw a line, and then undo - it undoes both the line and the fact that you changed colors!!! Nevertheless, I think I will enjoy playing with the tilt to change line thickness feature and I hope this gets expanded in future versions and/or picked up by some of the other aps. It would be great to be able to set up a couple different tilts, ie left/right for one feature and up/down for another, and have a whole set of different features to choose from. Personally I'd be more interested in one that altered from light to dark rather than opaque to transparent, or where you could set any two colors and then it would range between them.
