Year One Finale

Hello friends,
My first year of Animation officially ended today.
This means I finally have the time to upload a bunch of artwork and animations that I've been meaning to post.
Brace yourselves and enjoy.



My flour sack interacting with some (used?) dentures.



For this assignment we had to choose a passage from a novel that described the interior of a room and then complete a painting of said interior. This painting was based off of a passage from Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in which they describe his "Laboratory + Dissecting Room".




Character poses and expressions. no need to elaborate.


And now for a few things from one million years ago that I completely forgot about:



Pink Panther walk cycle




A painting of a a Utopia / Dystopia. You can choose which one's which.
I had a ton of fun experimenting with the colour swatches! I want to do a painting of only swatch squares. Maybe I will. keep your eyes peeled.


I hope you enjoyed this tremendous update.
Stay tuned 'cause it's summer!

P.S. Congratulations to all of the 3rd and 4th year Animation students. I attended the screening (4 hours, was it?) of the films and there were a lot of funny, creative, unique, and enjoyable films. Great job everyone and good luck with your future endeavors, 4th years. I am now even more nervous / excited for 4th year.
