Nerd like me.

If you're a nerd like me, you miss the joy of 1970s and 80s SciFi. My posters will make you feel like a kid again.

Tell Them I Tried.

I'd appreciate any constructive criticism on my new cartoon strip about parenting.

Thanks, Mark

How to improve your iPad art.

Ok, here's the power of never being too old to learn. The green shot above was my first attempt at a self portrait on the iPad mini the second day I started using a Pencil stylus with the Paper app. I didn't think it was half bad until I visited Michael Rose's blog, MadeMistakes.com. His easy to follow tut called "Mastering Paper by 53" really, I mean really, improved my art as evidenced by the top image. Still not a masterpiece but I can't thank Michael enough. If you want to improve your iPad art, here's the article responsible for my before and after: http://mademistakes.com/mastering-paper/drawing-faces/
