My first article for the SCBWI Mid-Atlantic Highlighter came out this week featuring my tips on using a hybrid workflow. A hybrid workflow just means combining traditional drawing and inking methods with digital painting. In my article, I give tips on how to go back and forth from the drafting table to the computer screen. I also discuss some of the tools I use, like my Huion LED lightborad which I love, love love.

Thanks to editor Dionna L. Mann for reaching out to me and for being so helpful. SCBWI members can see the full article here at www.scbwi.org. I think the article came out really well, and I was happy to be able to include process images for my Blissful Bumblebee illustration.

Testimonials

  • “I am so fortunate to have found Scott online; though we’ve never met in person, we collaborate virtually with great success. He makes every illustration special, and he frequently exceeds expectations as he envisions something more interesting, humorous or beautiful than what had been ordered. Given his talent, professionalism and versatility, I recommend him enthusiastically.”

    Angie King
    Owner, HappyReading.org
  • “Scott DuBar’s illustrations are both entertaining and insightful. He artfully communicates important information through visually appealing maps and clever, creative illustrations. His Happy Trails maps have transformed our approach to destinations in Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine, and they have become a popular resource for our readers.” 

    Will Harlan
    Editor in Chief, Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine
  • “Scott is always creative, and always on time. He takes my thoughts and words from articles, and delivers exactly what I envision. His art has become an integral and outstanding contribution to a regular editorial presence in the Utah Adventure Journal.” 

    Paul Oelerich
    Editor, Utah Adventure Journal
  • “I contracted Scott in 2011 to design a large backdrop illustration for a trade show booth that my company was creating for the 2012 New York Toy Fair. Scott did an absolutely fantastic job putting the illustration together (on-time) and completely exceeding all of my expectations. I really enjoyed working with him and plan on working with him again. The quality of his work was great, and everyone that saw the backdrop commented on how great it was. Thanks a lot!”
