Illustrator Bob Staake has made some videos showing how he creates his drawings, like many artists do these days. Unlike most artists, though, Bob uses Photoshop 3.0. Yes, 3.0, the same program he’s been using since 1995. His input device? A mouse. This proves the adage that a good craftsman never blames his tools, and that it’s not about what you have, it’s about how you use it.
