(Re)Learning to Draw: An Exercise in Cthulhus IV: "Business Time"

Oh, Creativity. That special kind of mental illness that causes you to spend 12 solid hours drawing Cthulhu with a fedora on. So, if the written part of this post is mangled, that's why. I can't brain anymore. Really wanted to do it all from scratch, buas hour 12 approached, this seemed like an interesting/fun way to keep it from getting sloppy whilst finishing all in one go.

Find the first three installments herehere, and here.


I'm pretty proud that these four drawings are my only experience with a tablet- with no other attempts before or in between.

While making this, I had the best/worst situation ever. I thought of a blog post that I really wanted to write, but also didn't want to stop drawing. Write?Draw?Write?Draw? The creative's dilemma.

Credit where credit's due:
The Background
The Briefcase

Blarg. Done thinking. Also, I just attempted to put a comma into the word done 4 times. Umm... apostrophe, actually.

Cthulhu was in the Bagiva Gita, I'll have you know. Not bad for my 2nd attempt with a tablet: I might be able to draw coloring book pages soon.

Owning a drawing tablet means never having to say your sorry

Well, by owning I mean borrowing from the upstairs neighbor.

And by borrowing I mean grabbing it off the couch while their house was on fire.

So I suppose she should thank me for saving it.

But actually the fire had already been extinguished by the fire dept, so the tablet wasn't in any danger.

So I suppose I should apologize for taking it without asking.

I guess, ultimately what secretly borrowing your neighbor's drawing tablet means is having to say your sorry. It also means you have to relearn how to draw from Square One. Case in point:
