Graphics update (kinda)

I found a cheap vector graphics program called DrawIt that I've been testing out (still in the 30 day trial). I was always struggling to draw something like sprites in Pixelmator (which I love), and needed something else. I did some searching and found that vector based editors are better for creating shapes and designs, while raster based editors are better for touching up photos, creating textures/layers, and creating more traditional 'art', like digital paintings. So, here are the results of a few hours of playing with DrawIt:

I also tried to draw a cat face:

Not sure how that one will come to fruition, but we will see.
