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.

Mystery and Comic Con!

Whew.. made the post for today!. If  you don't know what these sketches are from you'll have sometime to figure it out because I'll be explaining it until my next post; unfortunately that won't be until Monday because I have some packing to do and a comic con to visit :D Yes, I am going to comic con! I'm pretty excited about it. I can't wait to see and be inspired by all the artists there. So, have a fantastic weekend and try to figure out what my sketches are from:
