Donatello
Last bit of fun before more work. I've loved Ninja Turtles since I was a toddler.... and still do love them despite how ridiculous the entire concept obviously is.

Lip Sync Exercise
Did a fun lip sync exercise today while police and swat locked down the neighborhood because of people with guns? ... It was an interesting day..

PAPERCUTS ON PAPERCUTS
I've been trying to organize and find better places to store my old sketches. Rifling through sheets of paper is so much more dangerous (and painful) than it sounds.

The manliest of men
Made this for my father for Christmas. Without him, I would never have learned what it means to be truly manly. I don't possess any of those qualities unfortunately.

Scribbles and scratches
Started a little tumblr for all my sketches that happen randomly throughout the day and just end up piling and being forgotten. Go to there.

The Field
Trying to work more with color and light. I have been concentrating too much on singular characters and not practicing large compositions with multiple elements. Time to stretch the legs!

Pubertina: Rusty Sprinkler
So I haven't updated this in awhile... But it's only because I've finally been incredibly busy again thankfully. A new full time job and a bunch of freelance has taken away the free time. Anywho, I recently animated an episode of Emily Brundige's "Pubertina" which premiered today on the youtubes. It's normally animated by the very talented Josh Herron but I was lucky enough to get to step in for an episode. Enjoy!

Lazy Sunday
Having a relaxing Sunday sketching the activity outside my window. My apartment faces the street and it is a constant source of entertainment. I've seen everything from homeless people romances to a man hunt run by police. I probably stare out my window more than I watch TV.

Top of the sky
Doing some more playing in photoshop and really enjoyed playing with colors on this one. I'll probably make more than one version of this guy. But for now, sleep.

Ant hill
Just got off of a big and exhausting weeklong freelance job so now I'm taking a break and playing with some new ways to render my characters. This was a fun process and I think I'm going to explore it further. Also, poking at ants is how I spent most of my childhood summers.

Acorn
Finished my 3rd exercise! It took about a week longer to finish than it should have but life has been busy lately. For this I just wanted to get a character moving around a little more. I think I'm going to step it up a notch in my next exercise.

Bosko and Louie
A couple more character clean ups for Id and Ego. I'm back in the process of putting together a pitch bible for this idea along with trying to produce more animation, job hunt, and figure out my student loan situation. See you never, sleep.

Long day sketch page
Applied to about a billion jobs today. Took a break and did some concept sketches for an idea that's throwing me out of my comfort zone a bit.

Limitless Power
Finished my second exercise! I didn't really plan anything, just kind of ran with it. I guess this is what happens when I improvise. It was a lot of fun and I may clean it up and color it at some point as well as make a few minor tweaks. But for now it's back to animating.
Coffee Shop Sketchplosion
Been bad about scanning in all my sketches recently. Here are a few from recent coffee/drawing/procrastinating sessions.

Mid day doodle
Working on another fun and quick animation and taking a break. Been brainstorming a concept with these characters so I've been doodling them a lot lately.

One of them movin pictures
So I haven't animated anything in a long time. Between job hunting, freelance work, and life I haven't had the energy to dedicate to doing what I came to LA to do in the first place. I'm changing that by doing a few quick exercises a week. Then I may start trying to put together some more complex pieces. We'll see what happens. To productiveness!!
