4 Goldfish Sketches!

A few weeks ago, (sometime right before Father's Day) I got goldfish! I got two Goldfish and one Black Moor. And of course I couldn't resist sketching them!


The white and gold one is named Tito Friday!


The completely gold Goldfish is Finn Mercury



And the Black Moor is named Pluto.


They are adorable, and I love 'em! Friday and Mercury are always so frantic, but Pluto never runs away from the food XD. But they all love each other. They seem to be doing fine floating together.

Pyro Pup: Dog Designs

Finished up my screenplay this morning, and ready to hit some storyboards on it!

But Before that I'll lay down some more dog character designs I did for Pyro Pup


Some are similar, being shorter, or triangle nosed.  The initial character design I had for him received critiques saying he was too pig like (oops XD) But in an effort to keep his adorableness I have dived into messing with proportion and shape.


Any thoughts?

Pyro Pup: a film about a "Hot" dog

This September I am to officially start production on my senior film Pyro PupPyro Pup is about a puppy on fire trying to find a friend in a world where his mere presence would cause harm. This passed Spring Quarter (March- June) I started Concept Development for the film. Below is the Pitch Packet for it  (excluding the storyboards/slightly a secret right now)

Take a look!


Pyro Pup's design is still under development. This design was chosen during the story board phase!


The story is going through a few changes, but not too many.


One of my big big BIG inspirations is John Hubley's Rooty Toot Toot 1952


Maurice Noble is a huge part of my Layout Inspiration. (The Noble Approach comes out this October! I pre-ordered !!)

Non Objective painting as well as Abstract Painting. I adore Picasso's "Man Leaning on Table" 1916 (it reminds me of a cityscape!


Puppies......because puppies

Some designs developed for Pyro's look

The story includes a Homeless man, a Dog Owner, and a few other dogs





Hope you like what I have so far
 And now, Fire tests


So the fire is pretty simple. I'm still working out some problems with it but so far it's been exciting getting this all together!

I'll be posting some more designs and tests of the nature soon! Stay tuned :)

Banjo Pig Banjo

Summer Break is finally here! This break means more art for my SENIOR FILM (woooot)


But for now I have a great discovery!!


....well less a discovery but more, a recommendation? I guess...

Anyway Jantze, a brilliant professor of mine, referred me to this awesome site : Dueling Banjo Pigs

where it's nothing but (you guessed it ) Pigs playing banjos, by awesome artist! Being a little prone to drawing pigs myself I couldn't shake the opportunity to draw a pig playing a banjo...I mean come on!

So I drew this guy 


and he has a little companion!



Here are some of the sketches before the illustration:












I have also made a Pinterest Account Head over and follow me! I've mostly been pinning inspiration for my film, but I'm bound to jump into other even more awesome things!
