This political cartoon was drawn on 11×14″ 98lb Mix Media paper by Canson, sketched out with a yellow Smear Guard Sharpie Highlighter, drawn with a Fine Tip Sharpie, lettered with a Micron Pen no. 1, scanned in with a Brother MFC-J6510dw scanner/ink-jet printer (the scanner is great, but the printer blows chunks) & colored and edited in PhotoShop Elements. The image was originally 300dpi and after all editing was complete, the image was reduced to 600 points wide and to 72dpi removing most anti-aliasing effects. There were a total of four scans to produce this image. I scanned at different points during the drawing process. Here are the scans: 1) Lettering, 2) Line Drawing, 3) Layer Shading 1 & 4) Layer Shading 2. The sketch I did is not visible because the yellow Sharpie highlighter does not scan and so I don’t need to erase thus speeding up the production time.
