In Flux

For my first big drawing project, I decided to animate from life. The idea was better in theory than in execution, because, ya know, that's a lot of drawings for one project. I'm pretty happy with how the film turned out, so the long hours in the studio were definitely worth it (as they always are)! 

In Flux is an experimental piece exploring the influx of media as immersive and contaminating. The presence of misinformation pollutes the individual, spreads to the masses, and results a loss of self.

Drawing and Painting

Drawing and painting deadlines are fast approaching, and the ambitious projects that I started semester with are catching up with me. I am animating with charcoal on newsprint and painting two very large oil portraits… and I appreciate any help the universe can give me in finishing these projects on time. The good news? My drawing arm is getting way stronger.
