Sketches, June/July2008

One of the nice things about working downtown again is that I'm sketching on Muni again.
Love to sketch from life:

pix from wk 2 of teaching at kent middle school

haley and some of the characters for their pinkpanther "box" film.
they might not think so, but it was so charming when they sang the soundtrack.


"we need lots of parts for cutout animation"
below are all those parts that olivia created for her film with mabel.



some of the others characters which were created

teaching them that sometimes you need "stunt doubles" in stop motion


nicholas smiley and his pig for the volcano.




even when distracted, we have fun. above is danni.

here's ruby s.
