Compilation of figure motion studies from Dec 2025 to early January 2026. The site I use for my motion reference is "Bodies In Motion." I love doing these as a way to study & break down figures & animation movement, and they are great to treat like a digital sketchbook to do lots of side studies.

Gatekeeping is one of the cruelest things people can do to others in the this shrinking animation industry, yet I encounter horror stories regularly of friends turning backs on friends, or backstabbing others to get ahead. Artists need to be kinder to each other now more than ever.

Also - Nothing about any of this gen ai character placement makes sense. Daffy & tweety Clones? Coyote running on a short roof towards a stationary roadrunner? Taz being sneaky for no reason? A dark mystery window silhouette? The fuck?

Something a little different today -- a digital experiment! When I first found out about my paint allergy, I gave digital a try by painting on top of one of my color roughs from my last solo show in procreate. I didn't enjoy it enough to produce my finals this way, but it was fun to play around!

I have absolutely no idea what Trump is trying to accomplish in Iran, or how he plans to accomplish it, and the fun thing is that neither does he! That's why the constitution does not give the President the authority to launch wars without Congressional approval.
