Thanks for the encouragement, guys. Why do I use the mouse? Why don't I draw on paper and then scan? Well, I do have a scanner so one would think that to be the preferred way. The truth is, I can't draw anything on paper except for maybe romper room stick figures. Whatever it takes to draw, even average stuff, I don't have it. But using a computer opens up some possibilities. The way I draw these pictures is similar to putting a transparency over a magazine picture and outlining the woman. Then I put it over another picture and outline that woman. Then I go about the job of positioning these women appropriately, and filling in the detail, among other things, putting faces on them. That's why their bodies and shoes end up looking a lot better than the hands and bare feet.
Maybe some might consider this method cheating. I would rather think of it as working within the boundaries of my limited talents to create original tickling art. 😎
