Shelly Lifts A Heavy Purse

Yay, I finally posted an animation!

Shelly the Nymph

BEHOLD! A character design I should've posted weeks ago...




Basically, Shelly is a Nymph who lives in a park in the middle of a modern day metropolis. She has a lot of difficulty adapting to modern times, and spends her days skipping in the park woods or bathing in it's lake. City dwellers assume she's some sort of rare breed of hot hobo girl.

I'll post the animation were I used her shortly.

Beginning of School

Well, classes have begun again... I know first impressions arent everything but i must say im quite content with my teachers for this semester, they certainly all seem competent and fun. We now have our own desks at school, which is pretty sweet, i took a few shots of mine. Im pimped it out with all kinds of cool junk.






Unfortunately its quite difficult to acquire an animation disk, but ive improvised something until i can get one.



Haven't been spending much time on my computer lately, but ill try to keep updates flowing, hopefully with drawings and such.

Special thanks to Boris' cam for the pictures. -> http://borismaras.com

End of Summer, End of Work

This week I finished my last days at Mandarine 24. Though im glad my part of the project is done and things went relatively smoothly, I will miss the place. Working there was an awesome first experience in the animation industry, and I hope to work there again as soon as I can.

Here's a pic of the studio:



Snazy, huh?

Monday I'm moving into my new home, pretty anxious to set up and maybe get some drawing/coloring done before school starts in September.

Random Encounters

Tonight while i was taking the metro home alone, i ran into this German Lass. She asked me what direction the metro was going, and from that we started a whole conversation. Even though it was only about 20 minutes until our paths seperated for what will most probably be forever, i felt like there was such a pleasing sense of connection. In the last minutes before our inevitable seperation, i pondered if i should of asked for her number or email, but finally i concluded that it wasnt necessary.

I really enjoy random encounters like the one i experienced tonight. I often wish for them to happen, but tonight it finally did, and im quite content. Maybe next time ill meet an Argentenian dude?

Doodles of July

I think it's safe to say that pretty much all of these were done at the weekly Montreal Drink & Draw gatherings, so good thing i attend them, cuz otherwise i wouldn't really be drawing.
