Doodle: Aug 18, 2011 | A good friend David Molanphy, asked me to record my drawing process for my doodles. I have finally found a use for the video camera in my iPad2. I set it up and began to draw. I hope you enjoy it.

Here's my very first HD video. It's a short video featuring a few of my pet portraits. I just got a Flip Ultra HD video camera, so I figured I'd better learn how to save and upload an HD video. This video was made with artwork stills, not my new camera. Regardless, it gave me a good test run. I even learned a couple new tips, just doing this short video.

Here's the final video featuring the painting I created for the Party Animals book! In this short video, I chat about the details I put in the piece and how those little things mean a lot.

In this next-to-last video demo of my Party Animals painting contribution, I show you one way that I like to use metallic paint. I also give tips on adding texture to your painting, and how a little shading can help elevate your work.

Monday (today) through Friday is Party Animals Week here on my blog! First up are the final two video demos of the painting I created especially for the Party Animals book project. This one focuses on how to get colors to harmonize well together in a small composition. I offer a tip and a trick or two to help you to wiggle your favorite colors into a painting even if the colors might not seem to "go together" at first. Hope you enjoy!

Part 7 is up on You Tube. I discuss a little about watercolor painting in general, then I talk about the inspiration behind one of the dogs I'm painting in the picture. Hope you enjoy.

Part four of my first video demo is up now, here and on You Tube (where you can also catch video demos parts 1, 2 and 3). I'm getting a little better at putting these videos together (hey, we have a title! Whoopee!) It's also shorter, about 5 minutes long. (I like shorter videos... they are easier to digest.)
In this video, I paint a little Beagle's head. I do a lot of talking about the painting and my process. Of course I hope that this makes up for the lower video quality, but I know better than that. Ha ;). So I will let you know that I am looking into higher-quality video for future video demos! I really want to show you some more DETAIL in the work, than the quality of my Flip video camera can do. So keep that in mind. Have faith! I'm improving!
Dog Painting Demo Part 5 is also complete but not live yet! I will be posting it soon! Demo 5 is all about using the white of the page as a tool to help create texture and light in the painting. So please stay tuned!!

Here's the third installment in the series of my first-ever dog painting video demo. This has been SO much fun to do, I just LOVE showing you how I do my work and sharing tips, tricks and little stories along the way. I've been wanting to do this for so long but I think a sense of perfectionism kept me from going for it. I don't know much about video-editing, I don't know any special editing tricks, and I don't have a tripod. But I've learned, like with many other things, how important it is to be resourceful and of course have a little guts, too. I'll learn. You just gotta start somewhere, you know? We don't all master things overnight. So, one step at a time is my M.O. with this.
I think they will get more and more entertaining to watch as the painting gets more completed, too. I'm surprised at how much fun I'm finding it to watch the painting in process. I hope it's fun for you too!

Here is Part Two of my first dog painting video demo! I am new at this and these videos are not perfect by a long shot. I know -- but I will get better with time, and I am hoping that my enthusiasm and interest in sharing my process with you (plus the occasional painting tip you might glean from it ;) ) will keep you interested and watching! :)
You may be wondering. "What this painting is for, who is the client?" I promise to reveal this in a later video demo farther along in the painting. It will be fun to find out -- it is pretty exciting! So I hope you continue watching and listening to this work in progress!
I have recently been introduced to Twitter by one of my grandchildren and I must say I am truly enjoying it. Gives me freedom to stay in touch with all my extended family.

I enjoyed your video and echo the concerns about digital artwork looking like you WANT it to look. I often work at 200 percent but check the finishes by printing a sample before I turn in the work. It is amazing what shows up that you didn't want to place in your image (sometimes.)
My thoughts about Cintq were muddled with thoughts about a new intuos 4 tablet. Because I already have a 27 inch computer screen and am comfy with the tablet I ordered a new intuos 4 and pen. I think when I earn enough from my next book I'll still spring for the Cintiq, but for 1/4 the cost I can be happy with my tablet ... for now...
I hope you will share more of your adventures with your cintiq~
*drooling some more* :-) Thanks Kathy for answering alot of questions regarding the cintiq. I'm convinced even more that if I am going to get it the 21" is the way to go; really beneficial to see in "real" size. Hopefully I will get one later this year. I'm so close in splurging!
