Caveboy Story Beats




Hey folks!

Here's some of the work I've been doing recently for my portfolio. These are some more story beats for the caveboy story. There is no real narrative, but I tried to come up with short story ideas to fake it teehee.

Whoo...had a tough week at work, the deadline had it so that we stayed at work past midnight twice! But I'm glad that its over and we can stretch a little before it begins again. Yesterday, as a half reward half 'research' trip, we went to the Animation Research Library at Disney and got to see a ton of fantastic Paul Felix layouts...Ahhh...it was so amazing and inspiring! I totally wanted to go out and buy some pencils and try out some of that fabulous graphite technique.

Springtime!


Just a little something to celebrate winter turning into spring....Although it feels like summer around here!

Busy Busy Busy at work this week! Working on the weekend too! I don't mind much, but I'm a little dissapointed because I had made plans to go to the Santa Monica Farmers Market...That place is so great! Hoping to get some good strawberries, or maybe grapefruits...Oh! and maybe visit my favorite bookstore in the whole wide world, Hennesy and Ingles, always a great place to find a good deal and some hidden treasures. Ahhh well~ there's always next week, and it saves me on money buying more books!

My friend Pat...took a Turn...




Ah! The Office is back on TV and all is right with the world again! Last night's episode was so great...

I'm getting really nervous about submitting my stuff to Pixar Internship and Disney Apprenticship this term. I have to admit that this is the most nerv racking part of this process....the waiting! I can't wait though, I'm definetly looking forward to something different

Cheers!

Snakeskin! Leather and Fur! Oh My!




And now, more traditional Entertainment Stuff, I started some ideation on some random stories I would do for the Disney Apprenticeship. I realized I probally shouldnt use two Disney 'Properties' Since I already did Peter pan, this project has been ditched.


Beauty and the Beast, set in 1930' Hollywood, Twilight Zone style.

Hey folks~! Here I am testing the technique again. Using Agyness Dean as my muse for this. I love her look and vibe!

I'm going to start to work on a new project for my portfolio. I want to get some new work down in order to apply for the Disney Apprenticeship thing in the summer. Now that I wrote it on my blog for the world to see, I cant skimp out on it!

more personal work





Hey guys,

Things have been real busy since I've been out of school. I can't believe it, but I sort of miss the structure of school. It is nice to have a 9-5, but I wish I had more time for myself. I like the feeling though when I can walk into a place and not feel like a child anymore. I'm a full fledged adult now, and although it's a little scary, its also really exciting!

I've been playing with some ink/watercolor wash techniques that my co-worker Arree has shown me, and it's been a lot of fun! Its a great way to explore shapes quickly, I will try to do more stuff like it in the future. I'm thinking maybe a series of little ballerina girls could be cool.

The last one is for a contest to win some jewelry that I threw together quick.


Cheers!
