Ed!

Here is a still from an animation I threw together for a biology project. It's something a little different from me, but I had fun with it! Ed is a guy with a lot of allergies, so he is treated with allergy drops or Sublingual Immunotherapy. Yay Ed!

Jim Jinkins

This week I had the pleasure of hearing the creator of Doug, Jim Jinkins, speak at OSU. It was a great presentation and I was glad I had the chance to go!

After the presentation, we had the opportunity to meet Jim and exchange a few short words. I shook his hand and introduced myself (as calmly as I could!). While he was signing my very own Doug poster I told him that I too was an animator and was making a film about a duck who skates on butter. After mentioning the skating on butter part, without missing a beat, Jim replied "Of course he does!" in a very genuine and understanding tone. I was/still am so ecstatic about this! It was the first time I mentioned my thesis premise to someone and they didn't look at me like I was crazy! Yay Jim Jinkins!! :)

Doggies!

Doggies I was drawing in class the other day:

Ginger Tippecanoe

I have an awesome computer animation 4 class. Last week we some how got to discussing what our stripper names would be (first pet's name + the street you grew up on). Then, our professor made it an assignment to illustrate our stripper! Haha!
I usually don't draw sexy ladies (drawing old men seems to be my thing :P) but this was a lot of fun! Enjoy!
