RUNNING ON EMPTY—GTN ARTICLE

http://www.globaltoynews.com/2013/09/toy-tech-running-on-empty-part-2.html

This is the color version of my quick digital marker sketch for my article on running. I used custom brush variants in Adobe Photoshop CS6. The article was mainly on healthy lifestyle choices but also included a detailed progressive breakdown of this concept sketch from the rough to final color.

WORLD CONGRESS OF PLAY

Just a quick note of congratulations to everyone who contributed to the success of the World Congress of Play, especially Richard Gottlieb who continues to be an invaluable resource to the toy industry.

I am amazed at how many extremely talented people make up this industry and the openness in which they share their experience and insights. This has been, and will continue to be a great force of positive momentum to inspire both professionals and students to play hard and dream big.
