Sweden calling!

Postby LearningByDoodling » Wed Apr 30, 2014 6:31 pm

Hi!

I'm a 36-year old guy from Sweden that regret not going to art school. ;)
Instead I studied engineering and mess around with graphics on my spare time. I picked up sketching again a few years ago after a period of digital photography and photoshopping.

Looking for tips and tricks on the Internet I finally found Youtube as a great source of information. I got both discouraged and inspired by looking at real artists on Youtube (mostly speedpaint and time-lapse) and I finally got myself a wacom tablet. Since then I've been dedicating most of my spare time to drawing of some sort. And there has been a few comercial project as well.
Now I fool around a bit in Blender, Gimp and Inkscape. And I track my progress on my own channel on Youtube which really motivates me to improve and not stop creating even when there's no paid projects on the table.

I'm pretty new to Inkscape and trying to find good ways of working to go from ideas to finished paintings. I'd like to (need to) reduce time and effort from order to deliverable.
Windows 7, Wacom Bamboo Fun Pen and Touch Medium (2011), Inkscape 0.48 + devel r13348
