How to Use Adobe Ideas

Previous version, not 2.5 

Adobe Ideas, for the iPad, is my drawing app of choice.  I've used many other drawing apps but with it's clean UI and limited feature set, no other apps feel more like natural drawing.

With this eBook, you'll learn how to:

  • Master techniques professionals use to create three-dimensional illustrations
  • Simulate watercolor painting with transparencies
  • Create breathtaking color palettes from the world around you
  • Emulate eloquent wood cut prints
  • Draw natural lines with the Pen tool
  • Add robust texture to your art
  • Plus detailed information on every tool, setting and icon in Ideas

I've also included several cool tips and time-saving tricks for you to get the most productivity out of Adobe Ideas! Take this eBook with you as you create beautiful works of art wherever you are.

What is Another Place?
You've probably been there but you don't remember.  You might have pictures of it from when you were last there all those long years ago.  It's a place not so different from our own and all it takes to get there is you.  Remember what it's like to swim through the skies of Another Place, to run along the ocean floor, to find adventure and mystery everywhere you look. 
Here in this journal, we will record those memories and discover Another Place all over again.

Quiet Mornings

Posted on DateSaturday, December 4, 2010 at 07:55PM

I drew a sketch of a Junco this morning.  I was sitting at our dining room table, enjoying my coffee and watching the birds at the feeder.  We also had TWO red-headed woodpeckers in our yard!  I had never seen one before and had to use the Birds Of North America book to find out what they were!  Very cool!  I was in the midst of drawing the Junco so I couldn't switch over to the woodpecker.  The Junco was much closer to the house too.

My boys also got out their drawing supplies and spent a nice quiet morning drawing knights and graphic novels! This is a picture of Avery drawing in his sketchbook.

And this is a picture of a knight he drew this morning with me.  Click the image for a larger look.

And finally, my Junco sketch!

I'll post some images from Julian's graphic novel soon too.  It's very cool and features lovely artwork and story telling!

You guys have such a great setup for bird watching! Love the pic of Avery and his drawing :) and nice little Junco too! I got a letter from Avery in the mail today, what a sweet boy!

Thanks! The bird watching is a lot of fun and Avery's knights are sooo cool! Julian's graphic novel has hit a wall since he hasn't figured out what happens next in his story. Although when I told him people (ha!) were waiting for his drawings, he decided to buckle down and get back to work!
