I finally finished this animated short-short. It took me forever.I think I had the sound track done a year ago. Just been too busy to get all the pieces together. As with every project, I think it could be better, but at some point I need to execute it and move on. I’d like to [...]

What kind of art hangs in the galleries you visit? And what of the gallery patrons?
Quick study in Photoshop, drawn on the Wacom.

Keyframe is a good resource for all things animation. It features a list of online shorts, TV series, even direct to video animated releases. The Coming Soon section is helpful to see what animated features are floating around out there. The usual mix of ‘can’t wait to see’ and titles that no one is sure [...]

Yeah, I’m writing about that animated short again. Looks like it will be playing a few new festivals this year, so I dug out the old website and reposted it.
For those of you who need to know, the Thing with No Head is an animated short I made when enrolled at UCLA. I have [...]

Trying to get some new work to post, but in the meantime, this is the front of a recent postcard I mailed out. Drawn and painted digitally (Photoshop and a Wacom) from a pencil sketch.

Animation Monday can’t get much better than this.
A clip on Youtube from the amazing Triplets of Belleville. One of my favorite sequences. The ship crossing the ocean as the grandmother follows behind.
I watched this film twice the past month while working. Draw a little, watch a little, draw a little, [...]

Above is a close up and below is a low res, small size of a new digital painting I’m working on. The original piece is over 26 inches long, and I think it will be a great looking digital print.
Oddly enough I love to paint buildings…and I say oddly enough because much [...]
Animation Monday, with Walt Disney
Posted in Walt Disney, animation on March 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Animation Monday with no actual animation! But, some inspiring quotes from an older posting on the Re-Imagineering Blog. Walt’s words are inspiring across many fields, art and business alike.
I am not always a fan of Walt, but what he accomplished is amazing. And he did deliver on producing meaningful material suitable for the whole [...]

I had the pleasure of creating a few minutes of traditional animation for a documentary made by Chris Taylor in association with November Films. It’s called Food Fight, and it shines a spotlight on American eating habits. They just launched a new website for the film and you can visit!
It’s one of those important [...]
Garfield, better without Garfield
Posted in Comic Strips, online cartoons on March 4, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I’ve been sent this link by several folks. Anyone who reads this blog regularly knows I have a thing for comic strips. And how bad they are these days (with rare exceptions – Richard Thompson’s Cul De Sac)
And this, I think, proves it. Garfield without Garfiled is a better strip….
