for everyone
i have been going nuts about this facebook application called "graffiti". it has been around for quite some time but i recently discovered the "replay" function. this was what made me go nuts about it. the replay function allows you to watch someones work being created from scratch. you can speed it up or slow it down. watching other peoples work encouraged me to do a higher quality drawing than i had done before. so i sat down and drew/ copied the frog from a post card we brought back from costa rica. the replay function also inspired me to play around with the possibility of animation and i ended up with the guitar drawing. that one was made purely for watching in replay. if i post the link you can probably watch and comment on it. (it probably matters if you have the latest macromedia flash)

im happy that i discovered how to save the pictures and post them on here for those of you that hate facebook.

ps. these photos are in .png format. i have no idea if you'll be able to see them. i'll switch them to .jpg if anyone has trouble seeing them.

this one bugs me alittle because i was rushed. i didnt have time to finish the spaces between the fingers. my ride to fernie was honking at me.

amazing! do you use a regular mouse for these, or do you have one of those pen thingys?
panthermartin wrote on Mar 18
thanks you guys. i should do another soon but im taking a bit of a break from them for a bit.

bre- just a regular mouse. i had to make sure the laser lens was really clean. i think having one of those pen/tablet thingys would be both sweet and cheating.

hee hee....aaron you really are obsessed with the replay button!!!
too cute.
panthermartin wrote on Mar 19
you're right, i am. its bad that i am so obsessed with it. i take things and run with them.
panthermartin wrote on Mar 19
i am so excited that i made it to the public gallery for graffiti! if you go to the public gallery and look through the recent submissions you can find the green katrina. its really hard (for some odd reason) to make it onto the public gallery.
amandayo wrote on Mar 20
I looked you up in the public gallery and gave you a thumbs WAY up! hee hee...some of the art is so amazing!!! but obviously done with one of those special pad-pen thingys, which isn't really fair. that is why your drawings are so impressive. yay for you.
panthermartin wrote on Mar 20
whooo! you found it? thanks!

i spent too long on this one. its too small. if i had made kristine closer she would have been bigger and easier to see.
amandayo wrote on Apr 6
holy crap though! you are getting better & better at this!!!!
panthermartin wrote on Apr 12
special thanks goes out to my mac for letting me make "threshold" black and whites.

i like to look at this one and imagine that i have just traveled through a portal to another dimension and katrina is a little green gnome that is wondering if she can help me get my bearings. kinda like the fawn in the chronicles of narnia i guess. and then maybe once she starts showing you around you dont notice that shes green anymore. (yes i know that it sounds like i am on drugs but i am not. so neveryoumind)
breday wrote on Apr 16

kortina wrote on Apr 16
