Archie comics! Woot. They were first created in 1939, and I was amazed to find out that they are still being created today. crazy. Personally I always liked Betty more than Veronica, but after 70 years Archie still hasn't made up his mind o_O

Mystery revealed!

I didn't do any drawings today because I was pretty worn out after going to comic con which, by the way, was a lot of fun. I got to see William Shatner, Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca), Dee Bradley Baker, and Colin Baker who played the 6th Doctor in Doctor Who. They were all fantastic, but now I want to talk about my last drawings!

Those cute little drawings were from some of Disney's old cartoons Silly Symphonies. If you've never seen one of these delightful shorts you should. They were a series of cartoons where the character's movements were timed to match a musical score; Walt Disney used it as a way to experiment and further what his studio was able to accomplish in animation. These cartoons are also where characters such as Pluto and Donald Duck were first introduced. If you really haven't seen one I'd recommend The Three Little Pigs. Pay attention to how the animators made the pigs and wolf move to the music, and let me know what you think!


P.S. You all should check out Katie Cook at katiecandraw.com I discovered her at comic con and I think her work is fantastic.
