First admin Monday update of 2014! So much good stuff has been discussed in our Facebook group! Come join us there for the best way to stay updated on what's going on and be up to speed with our events and what we're talking about.

Updates:

Jay is still selling you Art.

Mary reminded us you can pick up a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2 for free over on Adobe.com

And Patrick pointed out this Tumblr where you can find brushes for your copy of Photoshop.

Mary linked to a great drawing tutorial website - Drawspace

A great documentary on the landscape painter Jim McVicker -


Flooby Nooby is a great source of animation links - but he also goes exhaustively through animated movies (like the Incredibles) in a shot-by-shot breakdown of how shots are composed, how the eyelines are guided, everything.

These are amazing 3-d typography designs by Lex Wilson.

Patrick linked to this -



Is it the world's most produced action figure?

I LOVE these Moleskine doodles by Kerby Rosanes.

And these 360 degree books are mind blowingly beautiful (by Yusuke Oono).

There are some great character design resources over on Chris Oatley's website.

There was a peek at the Art on display at the Arcadia Contemporary Show on the Underpaintings blog.

Matt Kish has illustrated every page of "Heart of Darkness" - and they're very intense.

Douglas Flynt gave some good tips on brushwork and linked to downloads for Harold Speed books on his blog.

Brian from Drink and Draw Sligo came to visit us for the last Pub Scrawl and was extolling the virtues of the Round Tablet website.

And Nicolas Delort has a new website - beautiful work on display!

That's it! I feel like the year has started for real. Come join us next Monday, the 3rd of February, for our next Pub Scrawl - #104 Bad Advice is still a converation
