Wow, I am always so thankful for all the wonderful people out there who devote their own time to spreading knowledge to others. I just came across this cool website thevirtualinstructor.com and specifically the youtube page for thevirtualinstructor. It’s full of free art lessons…videos of how to use watercolor pencils or mixing paint to create skin tones and composition theory. I believe that Matt is a high school art teacher and illustrator, just sharing information with all of us! It’s so wonderful to be able to learn something new, whether fundamentals or not…it’s always helpful to review for any creative person. Either way, it’s just fun to learn!
I find his way of explanation very easy to understand and follow. Not only is this helpful for adults who want to learn a bit about art…it would be great for homeschoolers as well – he offers free lesson plans. There’s a lot more material on the website than on the youtube channel, so definitely check it out and follow the blog. I guess other art teachers can use the info too… very cool. Hope you learn something new and get inspired this lovely Monday!
Here’s another scrapbooking freebie as I journey along as a digital designer. I really love to draw and experiment with shapes in Illustrator, so I end up with a lot of variations and experiments of just shapes. I’ve realized they are great to compile into clipping masks…so here’s my scalloped borders freebie. You can add borders and accents to your work using the materials you already have. I find that often, just changing up the shape and combination of elements creates a brand new look. Enjoy!
In addition, in celebration of Hoot Fest 2010 with Owl Tree Studio…you can get bonus points regarding this bonus freebie. Lots to play with, so go and participate – read this post for full details about Hoot Fest 2010. Ciao ciao!
Hi folks! I’m practicing with my Wacom tablet and actually using it solely, instead of reverting back to the mouse… causing a bit of sore-arms but I am drawing a lot more digistamps as a result 🙂 Here’s a quick doodle of a casual lady that I thought would be nice to share with you all. Great for mom cards or girlfriend themed cards, I think…enjoy!
Looking for a quick and easy Halloween party invite template that you can print at home? Download this cute skulls design notecards and start promoting your get together!
I thought it would be nice to have a host and hostess as part of the design, hence the two skulls, partners in life! And the blank lined area underneath lets you write in whatever details or text that applies to you.
Originally I thought of this as a party invite, but it can certainly be a journaling card, decoration in your planner or just something to print for the kids to color up and write about Halloween this year. Can actually be for All Saints Day as well with the skulls! Maybe you can decorate and draw over them with sugar skull designs? The sky is the limit.
Need to label your Halloween treats in a cute way? Download this free treats only printable!
The other day, I doodled up a little Halloween girl and wrote “Treats Only, please!” because I do like the treat part, not so much the trick part of this holiday. I remember being scared wayyyy too much in childhood, because our neighborhood had a thing for haunted houses and “trials” before you actually get a candy. Well, no more of that…I embrace just having treats!
After finishing up my art journal page of this illustration, I thought it would be really cute attached to the Halloween treats handed out…so here we have a new freebie printable! Pretty cute labels, no?
I suppose you can use these as toppers for bags as well or labels on candy bars…anything in the Halloween spirit having to do with treats! Yay! Enjoy and feel free to spread the word and share a link to this post! Thank you and have fun!
