Made a little picture of my dog lucy with hexels.

Pretty cool program. The glow function in it gives the drawings a really cool CRT tv effect. Lots of fun to play with.

Relaxed saturday afternoon artin’ is the best artin’.

A gif of my duck walk cycle for a little sketchbook animation I’m making, and the original poses sitting on my knee (they’re small!)

Those bus sketches led me to staying up late one thursday night editing a very amateur two minute-ish audio for a this little guy.

I also drew a bunch of quick drawings to flesh out his story, now I just need to sit down and put it all together!

An illustration I did for a school PTSA reflections competition.

The topic was “The Magic of A Moment”, and I figured everyone would be doing a kiss, so I chose to make it about kids, tree forts, and that moment (maybe just in retrospect) where you don’t have a single serious worry.

I got second at the state level \(‘o’)/

A little story idea Seth and I were working on during the bus ride home yesterday.

Howdy partner

There wasn’t really anything for me to do at work, so I drew this masterpiece.

I regret it, but only a little.

I touched up a charcoal owl drawing last year for a scholarship contest.

Reposting because everybody loves owl!

working on the animatic (basically the storyboard synced to sound) with a bit of quick animation for the giggles. 

Doing things like thinking about one second of animation for 45 minutes makes for a very long, long process. but it’s good. I think I’ve got a cool story to tell, so I’m really excited to show you guys when it’s more, I guess “put together”.

Taking pug breaks between animating.

Day 30, 31, 32, 33, and 34

Slowly figuring out how I want to draw the lizard in my animation for school. I’m almost done with the audio, but this semester has a way heavier workload than last, so I feel like if I work on this animation at home right now I fall behind on school work.

Gaaaaaaahhhhh

1-day streak

Day 24,25,26,27,28, and 29

A drawing of a guy photographed at a weird angle to mess with perspective (his head is smaller than his foot)

January is tough man. Working weekends, cold hands, and creeping deadlines are killing me when it comes to making progress on projects like this blog.

I am, however, making progress. Slowly but surely. I’m definitely doing better than I was one month ago.

Day 23

More faces in calligraphy pen

I saw this dude and had to draw him! I’ve never seen a picture where the guys neck and head made a straight line. It was crazy.

Day 19, 20, 21, and 22

I was working on finishing a story I started two years ago this MLKjr weekend. I still haven’t fully wrapped my head around the timing or a satisfying ending, but I’m close!

I’m going to try and do this for as flash project in my business class, and will have about 15 hours in class time to do it.

Good luck me?

Day 17

Drawing some faces with that calligraphy pen.

I’ve been pretty disappointed in my full figure drawings lately, so I decided to work on some faces. This one in particular turned out the most interesting, but I feel bad drawing them because I’m neglecting my anatomy skills. I shall work on it.

4-d.s.

Day 16

I’m sleepy, photoshop keeps freaking out, and I am in a mood where I don’t feel like I can do anything productive. Bleh.

3-d.s.

Day 15

I saw my dog staring at me in our driveway, and just thought her shadow looked really cool. Shadows casting a different silhouette is old news, but seeing it in real life, formed naturally was really cool.

I’m also slowly understanding how to do what I want in terms of painting in photoshop. I think I might be ready to start working with some color!

2-d.s.
