With apologies to Hugo Pratt.
I had a residency at the Emily Harvey Foundation this spring of 2024. It was wonderful to spend 5 weeks in Venice. My project is a series of short animations about real and fictional characters associated with Venice. I spent my time in Venice doing research, writing and planning, taking photos, recording audio and drawing.
Here are a few drawings and clips. More to come soon.
I made some drawings and a bit of animation for a film written by Peter Littlefield and directed by Roy Rallo. It is based on the Book of Revelation.
Here’s a couple of clips and drawings.
In addition to the veils I am making inspired by the Book of Revelation, I am also making some based on Kaiju from the Japanese film Godzilla series. Here are a few.
Here are some of the pieces I have been working on based on illuminated manuscripts of the Book of Revelation. They are made from laser cut old sheets, sewn into layers of tulle.
I have been drawing stills from the Godzilla movies on my iPad. Here’s a few.
I like to draw with Procreate on my iPad. I often do sketches and notes, and occasionally drawings from movies and tv shows I like.
The Host- great movie I saw about 15 years after it came out! A few drawings.
I made a series of accordion books based on my drawings for the animations of the play “1975: A Prophetic Drama.” I also made a couple of video books that included clips of the animations. Here’s a few photos. I showed these at the MoCCA festival in 2019 at a table with Marianne Petit and Eric Hagan. I also showed one at a virtual A. More Store at James Fuentes in December of 2020.
Here’s a few drawings for the project I’m working on with Kate Culkin. These are mostly character designs. We’ve been plugging away at this for a while, will have some more time to work on it starting in January.
