Holiday Drawing

Finally back from a fast Fall Semester at school. Yesterday I spent some time with my bestie from High School who now attends CalArts. It's nostalgic, overwhelming and always fun to see her and have her tell me about her experiences in the same field as me. It inspired me but again, in an overwhelming way.
Thus I decided to submit a piece I had started over the summer that reflects me in the state that I am now and where I'd like to be. I was at once battling this idea over in my head but I now understand that I create new characters to express where I am as an artist and a person for periods of time.

She is currently sexy yet nameless, but that will most likely be fixed soon since I'm a fan of naming things!

Psychopomp Cat

Here's a character sketch for one of the main characters in my film. This is the psychopomp cat that leads the other main character to a fantastical world. I'm in charge of animating this character and its forced me to learn a lot about quadrupeds and cat tails. The bonus to having to do research almost every time that I start a new animated shot, is cat videos. Lots and lots of cat videos.
If anyone can find some decent walk cycle videos, please send them this way!

What is it with the internet and cats....


....or animators and cats for that matter?
