July artwork. I attended a hackathon early in the month at InfoTrack so have included pieces I created there.

Rest of the drawings are around Sydney or created from home.

InfoTrack banking and finance.

I went to North Sydney with my friend Cathy and drew a boat on the water.

Brought my digital painting setup along to Fishburners. Several people were interested in the setup - some even got involved and drew.

I have been playing Crash Bandicoot 2 on my RetroPi.

Attended Fishburners meetup and drew/notes the talks.

InfoTrack logo redesign. Making InfoTrack more comic.

InfoTrack Legal.

Drawing the Sydney Habour Bridge but then just drawing from imagination.

Garfield. I like lasanga. I found a Garfield fanart and was inspired to draw elements from it. Lots of love hearts. I had a Garfield game on my apple2e that was used to create comics.

Colour layer for garfield and Handmaids tale.

Watching Handmaids Tale so been drawing along to it - buildings, crosses, and random quotes.

junemaid.

A landscape with a character in the foreground. Short spiky arms and round feet.

A nervous looking sideways face on the left. A portrait in the center with glasses and two spiky teeth.

I have a new Wacom drawing tablet. It’s a intous pro small. It worked straight out of the box with my Raspberry Pi running Rasbian. I’ve been quite busy drawing with it over the past week and a half. Here are the results, including some older works.

Season 3 of 12 Monkeys is on Netflix so I watched it and drew this. I had already seen season 3 but I’ve watched s1/2 multiple times already so why not.

background

Assets for the site. Likely won’t use it for anything but a good warm up. Thumbnail images.

Testing enabling opacity pressure. This is a change from size pressure. Opacity pressure will save me time when doing tonal works as i can get light to dark with pressure rather than changing color manually.

My friend painted a flower so I painted a flower.

Again, more flower studies.

I have been watching a few of the world cup games and drew this when watching them.

Request from a friend. Hedgehog.

upbote

This was created at the aws meetup in Sydney. It was the 2nd time I had attended the meetup and likely the last. The meetup doesn’t really interest me and I find the talks to be too dry and sponsored. The people are ok. I might attend the aws summit in April.

Digital drawing of Calista and her dog Willow. I would like to draw both of them more. The reference image didn’t show much - only half her face. Still it was fun to draw her and she liked the result.

Drawing of Carla.

Drawn when attending the golang Sydney meetup. It was a bit of a different meetup to my usual meetups. They had a talk on documentation then some library developers talk about their projects and then we were encouraged to work on their docs.

something random

Attended the laravel meetup. I mostly attended because they were talking ecommerce. I don’t get along to many backend dev meetups so this was enjoyable.

Remix and redraw of Karis artwork that she sent me. I love to collaborate with others on art.

Jessica had a great time on my drawing tablet. Jessica was here. A cat to the right.

Jessica here again. A sunshine in the top right. I sometimes draw sunshine. It’s usually multi ones though. Another drawing of the cat and penguin. My fav animal.

This was created at a IOT hardware hackathon in Sydney. A girl (who I never got her name) spent quite a bit of time drawing - a kiwi, unicorn, portrait, and figure with a hat. I love getting others to draw, so i don’t have to!

Drawn at Mikeys. Some random girl from redditgetsdrawn.

More from Jessica

Drawn at the IOT hardware hackathon in Sydney. Spikes and stuff.

zarah was the 2nd speaker at the Sydney android meetup. i had no idea what she was speaking about but i took notes anyway.

the first speaker at Sydney android meetup spoke about security. a topic that is close to my heart. i very much enjoyed this talk.

went along to a lunchtime tech talk in Sydney. They spoke about machine learning. It was OK, but nothing I hadn’t heard before.

I went to a digital art gallery opening on Friday night. I came prepared with my digital drawing setup. I had lots of interest in it with plenty of artists (and non artists!) giving it a go. There was others there using Wacom products - though they were on a much bigger scale and not open source.

Cat drawing. This was drawn after the gallery event outside a bar that wouldn’t let me in. The girl that drew it was great. Randoms on the street, creating art.

Rose flower during the gallery opening. Certainly one of the more talented drawings of the evening.

The hello world of digital drawing on my setup.

lines and a heart

Portraits. Some of them may be of me - I was holding the pi/screen and artist holding wacom/pen and drawing. I would like to think they are portraits of me. Few wine glasses, which is appropriate since so much wine was consumed.

robots at the gallery. One of the only pieces of the night that I created.

so cute. these two girls had a dlr camera so I started talking to them about photography. They ended up drawing this. I like the four legged animal they drew - is it a horse or dog?

This was created by two children. Anyone can use my setup. It’s impossible to make a mistake.

This is a dump of the digital drawings I have created since I’ve been in Sydney. It’s mostly from tech meetups but also of the waterfront. I have yet to make it to a zoo or beach to draw.
