A Marshtoon Interlude (Cartoons for the Cottage)
I had been out yesterday doing some consignment shop hunting -found some unique items.
But, today, I had to get back to doing something creative -just get'er done.
However, I was in the mood to have a laugh. And so I created a cartoon (marshtoon) that I want to add to the collection for a cottage country calendar.
I have seen the pictures of the fisherman in the river or rapids who has caught that prize winning fish and holds it up to display the prize. I have also seen the pictures of bears fishing at rapids and in rivers. I thought it might be amusing to meld the two.
Step one: Draw preliminary cartoon characters and then the rough and final drawing
Step two: Use the Tracer light table to draw an ink drawing of the cartoon.
Step three: Scan the inked picture into the computer and use Seashore to colour in the drawing.
Step four: Bring the Seashore cartoon into the Comic 3 program to add dialogue, frame and heading.

| At sometime I will need to get the set together and add colour either by hand or through an app. |
