I like to believe it is

just something that started as a quick sketch of a girls face and then evolved into this. I hope you like it. (feebly attempting art with a message lol)

The Graduate - Set Me in Motion

ugh almost done.

just as the title suggests. This is one of two poster/print designs for the first Cast short story. "Cast and the Red Night." (working title) this is the main antagonist of the little story.

Art books

Hey ok so this post is just a little blurb about art books. Now when I say "art books" I don't really mean like "how to draw" or technique style books. I mean like the art of Street Fighter or The art of Fullmetal Alchemist, books like that. Anyways I love these books and love collecting them. I would definitely say if there was any one thing I am addicted to it is art books. I have about 25-30 so a small collection to some and a large collection to others. These books to me however aren't just something cool to look at and possess. To me these books are constant reminders to grow and get better as an artist as well as a vast and ever expanding well of inspiration. Anyways I say all this to not only show my point but to share the books I have and from the list I am about to compile I ask if anyone reading this blog has any interest in a particular book let me know and I will post up a small little something about it with some pictures and some of my thoughts on the book. Anyways here are the books I have.

Lupe Fiasco - Words I Never Said

Tekkonkinkreet

So this is kind of out of the blue but I was thinking about this movie recently and just how great it is. Tekkonkinkreet is a marvel of animation and design. It is absolutely gorgeous to look at. The visuals are stunning, beautiful backgrounds, interesting character designs and again some really awesome set pieces. I won't say much about the movie other than it follows the lives of two kids Black and White. And there journey living in the street and what they deal with and their relationship. The film was made by one of my favorite studios in 4c, directed by Michael Arias and adapted from the manga by Taiyo Matsumoto. Tekkonkinkreet to me isn't a movie that you can really explain to people, it needs to be seen. Which is why I will leave you with a trailer and a reoccuring statement I've made many times before, SEE THIS MOVIE!

This, I believe to be true.

 

Man I have been just design crazy hahaha anyways I think this is awesome and I think big foot is both real and awesome so yeah, enjoy.
