The ghost from my film, sproutin' little leggy-dealies. He doesn't sprout them in the film, but i thought it was cool anyway.

Regarding Photoshop Skills
Today my friend Dianna and i challenged eachother to a duel. A photoshop duel, where we must create the Best Picture Ever using photoshop. This was my final product. If anyone would like a tutorial, i can happily provide one.
Aaaand i guess here's something for real, using more manuscript samples, plus a photo of my bed and laptop. She's a digital medium who contacts the spirit world through the internet (get it? get the pun? i found it appropriate.)

There's a part of me that would love to learn how to illuminate manuscripts. There's a bigger part of me that realizes that the art form is tedious. I suppose that's why i'm an animator.
Plus manuscripting (i don't know the actual word for it, so i made this one up) would have little to no practical application, other than artifact forgery which is good money but weighs too heavily on the soul.
In any case, this is my un-named star of my story this year. i think the manuscript samples i used are the work of the Limbourg Brothers. I just thought they looked neat.

Pentel makes this brush pen that's impossible to find. My friend Ed knows where to find them and got me one for Hanukkah a few years back. I lost it for about a year, then found it a few months ago. It's a pretty amazing pen. It holds India Ink (i think) and has synthetic bristles that won't fray over time. It's fun to play around with and i need to learn how to use it properly.
Featured below are some attempts to remember how to draw the kanji for "fire". I have failed miserably, my appologies to the culture.

It occurs to me that something known as Hollow-Ween. I never really know what to be for halloween these days. Back in the day it was easy... Oh, that cute guy in class likes Star Wars? I'm totally going to dress up as Princess Leia! I actually tried it once, it didn't work. My awkward shyness won out in the end. My hair was long enough to make those buns, though! No wigs for me.
Anyway, in the spirit of the season, my room mates Halloween colored cats. Squash is dresses as a Squash!
Also, some dinosaurs...
Here's the same art from my last post, edited into a photo (courtesy of Corbis.com) to play around with a visual style that i wanted to try for my film. It worked pretty well, but in the end it would be far too time consuming to do for every shot. Still, here it is for your ... enjoyment.

Look at her. She's got hands. Do YOU have hands?
May be the final design for the main character of my film this year. The film itself doesn't really have much to do with hands. The main characters will have hands, but it doesn't really come up much.
And here's some life drawing! It's art that i can make without thinking about it too much :)

Boob kittens and sketchbooks
One of our cats is a boob sitter and the other is a toe biter. The boob sitter is not really that particular (unfortunately, neither is the toe biter)... he'll sit on laps and stomaches. He's sitting on my lap at the moment. But boobs have been sat upon.
Critical studies classes can be kinda dull at calarts. I've been doing a lot of sketchbook drawing, which is good, but i didn't really have the opportunity to just sit and do it all summer. My sketchbook muscles have atrophied, but there's still some odd residual muscle-memory that's allowing me to keep doodlin'

On the brink of moving yet again...
Well, i finally got my old scanner hooked up to my old, rusty trusty computer for some art posting! On an art blog! How novel!
Pullin' myself out of a drawing slump that is more like a slouch that slouched it's way out of the chair, onto the floor and into a road-side ditch!
Getting back to some fun basics with animals.
One of the animals may be wearing panties.

Wow! After months of no posting, staring at the same crappy drawings with no actual hint at real artwork, i offer you my thanks for even checking back to read this entry! Sadly, i can't provide you with any actual new art as of yet, but in the meantime you can see my film (along with the rest of the films in the 2006 Producers Show) at this fine webpage! It's in the latter half of the page, so keep ooooooon scrollin'!
Thanks for watching. peace out.

Best n' Brightest!
Well, as speculated, here are some samples of the fine, quality work that more than matches the cosmic standards that only pixar can hold in it's interns.
behold and pray that you can match the levels of raw brilliance.
NOTE: The artwork posted here has nothing whatsoever to do with any current film production at the studio... and the artwork, sadly, is mine.

humdeedhum...
well, it looks like i'll be in the studio late tonight trying to make significant progress on, if not complete, this latest assignment. perhaps i'll take this late-night excursion as an excuse to use the scanners that i've recently been introduced to.
or perhaps i'll just upload some cat picture i took a few weeks ago.
