Adobe MAX 2024 Miami

10/17/2024

Big Thank You to Three Important People

First, My Wife. She continues to support my art career every step of the way, to the point that everything is possible as long as she is by my side. 
Second, Joshua Timothy. I first met this talented creator in NYC for the Microsoft Surface Event in 2019. We have stayed in touch ever since and this year we were able to partner with Microsoft Surface at Adobe MAX. We created so much content together four of the five days of MAX, so much that you will see a few more reels featuring my Surface Pro 11 and Adobe for a while! 
Third, Rosalia Ley. We only met a month ago at an Adobe event in Atlanta, GA. When we talked about MAX and found out we would both make it to Miami, I asked her to partner for some creative content and she agreed immediately and brought many ideas ready to go. 

I also want to thank many many people but I will mention a few and then show you pictures below:
Adobe Community Experts Team, Sil Cleary for leading an amazing team of Experts to support the latest Adobe updates. Thank you for bringing me on to Adobe MAX! I had a lot of fun talking about the latest updates to Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Express. Vector art all the way!

Surface Team, Xiomara Malpica, Stefanie Keeley and Cora Leach for supporting Josh and Dan on our Road to MAX. We put our Surface Pro 11 and Surface Laptop to work with the latest Adobe updates and I have to admit, that the Surface Pro 11 is super fast!

The Microsoft Booth! All of you were super awesome to talk about Surface with Adam, Erica, Amber and Yan plus I had a ton of fun drawing on the Surface Hub, I need one or two of those in my art studio running Illustrator and Fresco, please! lol

I took many many selfies with amazing artists and creative whom I admire for their talents. I am fortunate to be part of a great art community and thankful to Adobe for giving me the opportunity to share this amazing experience.

Day 7 Of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge w Microsoft Surface Pro 4 and Surface Pen 


Day 7 of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge is here and we are drawing with the top device in the list of drawing tablets I own.

I have been drawing on 7 different devices on 7 different days show that we do not need the most expensive tools to create impactful art, Even in the digital space, there are different levels of access to tools for every budget.

Many years ago, way before the Surface line of tablets, I approached the Microsoft Store to feature some drawing sessions on their devices. I do not recall what drawing tablet Microsoft was selling but they agreed to host a couple of drawing demos.

I had never drawn digitally at this point!

I have been working with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop since 2001/2002 but had not taken the opportunity to draw on the screen. I did own an HP laptop that had a pen enabled screen when I started with Illustrator, but it never occurred to me to draw with it. I do no know why.

In any case, those demo days at the Microsoft Store in 2011 were my first time trying to draw digitally. The store had some devices and I remember using a Samsung tablet running windows, I drew on the basic drawing app, I think this was Windows 7. Windows 8 was coming and it was called Metro at that time.

Then the Surface drops and I know I want one! By then I had started to work with my Wacom Bamboo tablet and got familiar with current tools enough to realize that the best tablets were the ones that came with a pen.

By the time the Surface 3 was on the market, I was ready to buy one at full price. The next year the iPad Pro came to the market and now it was a race for the soul of an artist!

Since 2016 I have owned both, the iPad Pro and the Surface Pro 4 and my admiration for both machines is still strong. I do not have a preference of one over the other, however, I do see the value in each machine and their capabilities to help me produce the art I need.

I still own a Surface Pro 4, the one on this video is a 16GB RAM, i7 Processor and 500GB SSD. More than enough power to help me with my work in the Adobe Creative Cloud including Premiere, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Audition and of course, Sketchable App.

Day 6 Of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge W iPad Pro and Adobe Sketch

8/13/2018

Day 6 of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge is all about Adobe Sketch and Adobe Draw, 2 free awesome apps for sketching and drawing that lead to a professional illustration.
https://youtu.be/1wH_XHQ-Lz8 

I am drawing on 7 different devices on 7 different days. A lot of times we think that we need better/pricier tools to create the art our talents deserve but the reality is we can create impactful art with very simple tools, even in the digital space.

Ever since the iPad made it to the market, I knew I had to get my hands on one and try to draw with it! By then I already owned and had tried to draw with, a Bamboo Tablet by Wacom. I say I tried, it was a very rough start to my digital drawing training.

As time went on, I admired the iPad from afar and got my hands on a Samsung Note 10 and then a Note 10.1 and discovered how well made the Note was.

Eventually, I started collecting devices and aftermarket pens to draw digitally, pens from Adonit and Wacom, but nothing really worked well with the iPad.

I’ve had the iPad 2, the iPad Air, the iPad mini and finally: the iPad Pro. Once I heard that Apple was finally releasing the iPad Pro, I was ready to draw with some of the best apps in the App Store including Adobe Draw and Adobe Sketch.

I am still enjoying myself!

Day 5 of 7 Days #DigitalChallenge w Samsung Note 5 and Bamboo Stylus Feel

Day 5: https://youtu.be/MNsvM4xSlHY 

I remember when the first Samsung Note came out, I wanted one so I could draw on my phone! My digital illustration path had not yet started and I knew that drawing on the Note would give me creative freedom at anytime I felt like drawing.

I was able to walk into the AT&T store by the time the Note 2 was in stores, and get me a new one since my contract was up. My satisfaction was a bit short lived as every year the smartphone technology has continued to expand to the point that drawing on a phone is not the novelty it once was. 

Currently I own several Note phones, I collect them really. I want the ability to draw on the go, quick and easy, right out of my pocket. I want to be able to sketch out my ideas before I forget them. And if I use Adobe Draw and Adobe Sketch on the Note and export to Adobe Illustrator then I can finish an illustration for a client!

Get you a Samsung Note off craigslist, facebook marketplace, anywhere you can and get to drawing, they are cheap now!
Also, the pen I am using is the Bamboo Pen for Samsung Note tablets and smartphones by Wacom. It is worth every penny!

Day 4 Of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge with Wacom Cintiq 21UX

Day 4: https://youtu.be/yJimb8nF2Rk 

I got this Cintiq a few years ago, used, from a company that had it sitting around in a closet for 10 years. There is a bit of dust in between the glass and the digitizer but the performance in the display is still the best of all the tablets and computers I have ever used. 

The 21 inch size allows for the full use of my arm, elbow and wrist to get super clean lines in my art. The Stylus is the right size for my hand and theres a rubbery grip that makes it easy to handle. I buy soft tips to replace the hard plastic tips that the stylus comes with, those soft tips gives me just enough friction to give me that paper and pencil feeling. 

The HP ProDesk is a new addition, its powered with 16GB of RAM, an i5 Processor and just enough Hard Disk space to house my current digital projects. Its a nice handy machine to give the Cintiq enough juice to produce good client artwork.

Day 2 https://youtu.be/AfWrHfsDhgg 

This is my second little Dell Venue 8. My addiction to tech is rooted in the ability to draw with each device and the Venue 8 is perfect. This Dell is 2GB RAM, 32GB SSD and with the pen, I can draw right on the screen. 

I bought a Pluggable hub and I can connect a keyboard, a mouse and extra screen all the while charging. 
I enjoy this little guy!

Samsung has a great track record of building digital tablets for creatives and the 
Samsung Note 10.1 was the second edition of the large Note series. I got a hold of one,
drew a couple of client gigs and still draw on it every now and then. 
Wacom made an S Pen replacement stylus, the Bamboo. It works perfectly on the Note 
10.1

Day 1 of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge w Adonit Pixel Stylus and iPad Air 2

8/13/2018

7 Day #DigitalChallenge starts with the iPad Air 2 and Adonit Pixel Stylus for iOS

The Adonit Pixel Stylus is perfect for drawing on iPad Mini, iPad Air and iPhones. I reviewed the Adonit Pixel here on Facebook:

https://www.facebook.com/dacreativegenius/videos/10216547686915751/ 

The iPad Air 2 is a great tool to start the digital drawing practice. My favorite apps are Adobe Draw and Adobe Sketch. Adobe has made it easy to connect drawing apps with the power of Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Draw thru the use of Adobe Creative Cloud.
