Gallery Update: THE ART OF STAR WARS (the Klondike…)
I'm alive! You didn't believe me when I said it before, several times, over on Face Book, did you? But I wasn't lying. I am, indeed, still alive. And, I've made some significant changes to the site! Whadaya think? Aside from some cosmetic changes in a few spots, the two biggest alterations were made to the PMD Brainisms and everything that is IPMDT. The Brainism image is now interactable (I don't care what you say, spellcheck, that's a word)! You can swipe left and right with your mouse to view some of the previous Brainisms (though not the original
Gallery Update: Stuff and Things
Creative title, right? Can you tell I’m tired and worn out? It’s been a challenging few weeks since our son’s diagnosis. He’s doing fine, by the way. We are all adjusting to the new normal, though I feel like I’m struggling to get back into some kind of routine. I’m hopeful things will smooth out even more next week. I’m currently visiting family and making good use of the new iPad Pro to finish this site update that I started earlier today before the chaos that is packing and prepping for a weekend away. I’m really loving this new device,
Attack of the Life
Well, I blew my streak of consecutive weekly posts last week. There was a very good reason, though: LIFE! But first: ART. Back in June, my brother's family dog, Tweed, passed away. He was 15 years old and had been struggling with several health issues for many years, it's kind of amazing he lived as long as he did. In fact, the reason he did is because of the love and care my brother and his wife gave him. I know they were understandably both really broken up about his passing, my brother especially. Tweed couldn't have asked to be
Inside Toby’s Brain: MediBANG!
You thought I was going to forget to update the site this week, didn't you? DIDN'T YOU!? Me too. But I 'membered. I think this may be the last of the big catching up posts. About a year ago, when my Samsung tablet still had that new tablet smell, I was looking for the "perfect" drawing app to suit my needs (I've got several favorites, but the search will continue). I stumbled across the free app, Medibang Paint. It looked pretty robust, and it was free, but the interface was "weird", so I set it aside and decided to focus
Gallery Update: Still Catching Up…
Oooh! Three weeks in a row? Something like that? I may catch up on all the ideas for blog posts yet... Don't get your hopes up, though. Life is still happening. Anywhat, before I go back a few weeks...or months...I'll post this: My awesome wife picked up on the fact that my favorite ballpoint pens for drawing were running out, so she did a little research and found me (and the kids) some cool pens. They're nothing special, amazingly, just Amazon Basic 1.0. But, they work really well. They have good flow and are very responsive to pressure, meaning
Gallery Update: A Moleskin Story
Alright, two weeks in a row of updating the website! Shall we take bets on how long the streak will last? I vote for Q, because my brain. Speaking of spelling (I know we weren't, but my brain and I were), am I even spelling "moleskin" correctly? I've noticed it autocorrects to "moleskinE", which doesn't make much sense to me phonetically, unless I've been pronouncing it wrong all these years as well. Either way, I don't care, so let's move on. If you actually had the interest or patience to have read last week's blog entry, you may recall that
Please let me know what you think, it makes my brain happy.
