So I've been working kinda crazy hours now that we're in the latter part of the latest Nancy Drew production, which means that all of my big projects are placed on hold. Fortunatly, what I'm working on now requires me to test render 15 frame animations...a lot of them. That then means that I have 2-3 minutes to draw every 15-20 minutes or so. This is an example of what happens.

My Tombo pen spit this out the other day. Fun lines and perspective play. I have a canvas that already has this weird wood texture on it and I think this'll look pretty good on. Enjoy...

12 BARS OF CHRISTMAS

Sorry theres no new image, but, on the off chance that somebody reads this blog, the 12 Bars of Christmas is tomorrow December 16. We start at The 4 B's @ 6:30 (4300 Leary Way NW Seattle, WA 98107). I just got my T-shirt today and their friggin killer! Hope to see you there. Enjoy...

So I moved recently and in doing so I found this little 8” x 8” canvas that I had painted over and over. It was thick with acrylic paint, but it had that nice smooth feel that layers and layers of acrylic will do. That’s, by far, my sharpies favorite surface and this is what it drew. I must say that I really had very little to do with this drawing, my sharpie just kept moving while I watched the Seahawks. Enjoy…GO HAWKS!!

I WON! My submission for the 12 Bars of Christmas won. This is what’s going to be on the back. Notice the nice big and black Thoreen Animation logo that pulls the eye right to it? Yeah, I think it kicks ass too. I guess there’s going to be around 100 or so people doing this masochistic marathon so it'll be pretty sweet to have my image and logo running around the streets of Seattle in a golly drunken mob. Look for us.

I made this in honor of my old neighbor. Well, that and a tombo pen plus a wacom tablet is just good 'ol timey fun. Enjoy...
