at your request

I had to dig this up, my current sketching is put on hold, but did someone request more dogs?
more dogs is always a good thing.

Sweet Sara Vicious

o.k., so some people have been asking about this 'film' thing I mentioned. here are a few prepatory sketches of Sara to start. The story itself is based on a poem I wrote a few years ago. if you need more info than that, you'll have to call or write. and yes...its taking FOREVER!

somethin' about this guy that cracks me up. its just something i'm working on for my film ( read: my albatross ) To clarify some previosu comments, this thing is a demon-like creature. part man, part goat, part beastie. thats why it looks like it does.

I'm still trying to get the proper bratty-ness to this kid. I like how he looks sinister and still somehow likeable. I think its the big head-little body syndrom that makes him at all appealing. later.

love that 'tude

here is a sketch of some characters I've been developing for a project. Trying to get the attitude dynamics between characters is always fun for me. sometimes I get it.

the first Briday!

hello. as I catapult myself into the 21st century, I thought i should start a blog of my drawings, sketches, and mental vomit that until now had no place to land. so clear a place on your lap, and look for a steamy pile of stuff to show up shortly. I've decided to take at least one full day a week and dedicate it to MY stuff, not any paying gigs, no work stuff, but a block of time dedicated to my pet projects, I call this day Briday. it moves around the week at will. I like that quality in a day.
As far as content, I am a cartoonist/animator/character designer in Portland, Oregon and fill my days in a number of ways, ( mostly legal ) but lately I've been feeling disconnected to the vast web of other spare bedroom dwelling animators in the world, so I'll try to put up a continuous poo poo platter of characters, ideas, previous sketches, and the like up here and maybe get some feedback and connection to the rest of the world.
hello?....is there anyone out there?

see you soon!

Brian
