storm..

a little while back, some folks from work decided to select a single word and do a sketch/illustration about it.  not really that uncommon in the industry, but it's fun to take part in these sort of things for so many reasons...

my scanner is on the fritz, so the iphone pic is going to have to do, i guess.  if you move your head from side to side, it helps reduce the glare from my heavy handed graphite application, yes?

human head...

i guess the reality is that everyone is busy, so not posting because of that is just an excuse.  especially for me, given that i've been doing a lot more drawing on paper these days than i typically do.  this is good.  i AM busy, so here is my post.

taffi -- 2013...

the results are in!  great weekend and great festival.  if you haven't been to TAFFI yet, i suggest you go next june.  i saw some great animated film screenings from both professionals, filmmakers and students, plus attended a slough of great workshops and panels from state of the industry addresses to how to take an idea from a napkin sketch to a fully produced series...i also ended up doing a run for some proper cigars for one david silverman, director of the simpsons for the last 24 years.  i'll tell that story another time..

one of the workshops that i attended over the weekend was an environmental drawing workshop from layout and design veteran, scott caple.  i was fortunate enough to speak at length with scott and i learned that not only is he a hell of an environmental artist, but a friendly person willing to make new friends in the industry.  seeing as i was at the festival partly to meet some new folks in my industry, it was nice for me to have been able to meet and chat with someone who's work i greatly admire...

here's a few scratches i did during the environments for animation workshop..

scratches for the sake of them..

this is a fairly recent sketch that relates to no one specific.  he does, however, feel a little like a washed up early-mid eighties punk/post punk icon--sorta like iggy pop, tom verlaine and richard hell all rolled into one...
