earring, ink on paper, flash

putzing around with a quick drawing…somehow the axis of rotation slid a little off to the side while processing in photoshop.  c’est la vie.

foghorn, digital (animated in flash, color corrected in photoshop)

this is a response to sophia’s lighthouse lady.  she was so very kind as to teach me how to do this :)  

i want to make a series of disembodied, spinning heads. 

an experiment in strutting

not knowing what you’re doing is both incredibly exciting and frustrating.

animated gif.  oooh la la.

this is the kind of trippy awkwardness i get for trying something new.  

i was chatting with willie about how awesome miyazaki’s color pencil story boards would look if they were animated.  the natural progression of that idea was, “hey, i should try to make something move with color pencil!” 

fast forward 3 hours and you have a genius idea turned into a horrible execution.

a part of me feels guilty for spamming the web with amateur animated gifs.  the rest of me is kind of amused by its silliness.  

i can just picture my animator friends pinching my cheeks, “aw, look at the little illustrator trying to animate 6 frames of nonsense.”
