I have these fun new toys now, and I need to play with them. They involve the program Procreate, and my Apple Pencil.
Once upon a time, I wrote a story involving a snail. He's in The Experimental Notebook of C. S. Boyack. I had Sean Harrington paint him into this bit of Lisa art to promote the book with.
I cut out the snail from this image, and placed it into my header image. Just to amuse myself, I'm going to make him move at a snail's pace across the image, and up onto my sunglasses.
He'll move slowly, and I don't know if I'll take him any farther than that. It involves loading a new banner every couple of days.
If you want to know more about the snail. You can check him out in The Experimental Notebook for the princely sum of 99¢.
That sounds like a fun idea. 🙂

I decided I’m safest to play with art I already own. He loses some detail when he’s squeezed down to size, but I’m still amused.

And that’s the most important part. 🙂 Something small is pretty eye-catching in a way. People might spend a little extra time on the blog to see what it is.

This stuff would be more fun if I could draw myself. It’s still fun though.

The things I could do with the ability to draw. Best I can do is trace.

Yup. I have the imagination but not the talent.

Probably for the best. At least that’s what I plan on telling myself.

Lol! He’ll get there eventually – though you’ve made it harder for him by scaling him right down! 😛

I like this idea. At the same time why don’t you have that leaning stone you slowly fall over.

That might exceed my skillset. That’s part of the background image, and the other stuff is a layer over the top. I’m going to keep doing fun stuff here though.
