Color!

Here's a bird
He likes to smoke.
A fine chap he is
I hope he chokes.

For he took my hat far and away
Spat and shat on it every day.
Wasn't very nice of him.
And so I cooked him up for din.


That poems' a little dark...so I thought I'd write another. I don't know where these come from but it's kind of weird and magical.


Here's a bird.
I'll call him Joe.
Sophisticated chap
A beautiful crow.

Sent his honey gifts and such.
No reply,
He's out of luck.
Spends his time dreaming of the day,
The memories of her will wash away.


What's funny is, this one came out darker and even sad! What the??! Oh well, I guess that's what you'll have to expect from me.

These boards below are from that same film idea I mentioned earlier. Man, that tree is angry!

Old Sad Crow

Old sad crow,
sittin in the snow.
Feathers' a freezing
right down to his toes.
Thoughts were swirling
away with the wind.
Dreaming of his home
and all of his kin.

Here's my first piece! Don't have much artwork on my computer here at work so I'll have to start scanning at home very soon. This was a vignette done for a film idea my friends and I were working on awhile ago. We kind of stopped when we ran out of story steam...but who knows... maybe an idea will come to me while I daydream.

Ahhh daydreaming....seems like I have no time for that anymore. Animating on a feature film takes alot out of you...but there's seems to be a certain pocket of creative energy that unleashes every so often and I explode with ideas. Those moments feel so good and I hope to share a little of that with everyone. Recently we've been doing lots of caricatures here at work. I'll be posting some of them soon...so a word to the more sensitive folks out there.....um....sorry....that's just the way I see you. Hahahah! I kid kid. If you'd like me to take it off the site just let me know.
Now..on with the show.

Ground control to major blog...

Well, here I am in Blog land. After much persuasion from all of my friends.... I have finally done it. Get ready for excitement, laughter, and tears of joy. Visual pleasure will arrive shortly....you have just entered the captainyolk zone.
