Jebus.

I've learned more in the past four days about the animation business and how to be a better drawer than I have in the past several months. Denys Cowan, who invented Static Shock and draws Batman on a regular basis is my boss. He critiqued my portfolio, which was one of the more stressful moments of my life, and actually liked it FUCK YES. Although he essentially called my sketchbook kind of crappy (which it kind of is).

I've struggled all my life with thinking that my skills aren't good enough, and this was just a little validation that they might be. I've also seen that I'd be totally happy doing either animation for a film studio or doing character design for a cartoon. Either way, it's likely I'll end up back here in California.

I looked at a failed pitch for the network. It involves a superhero called the Brown Goblin who's made out of poop. His enemies include a man made from lube, a gay used condom, and an angry roll of toilet paper.

Anyone who likes drawings of hot women with ridiculous proportions, look no further than Alberto Ruiz's work. I am obsessed.


p.s. i am still totally confused by LA and have no idea what to do with my free time

p.p.s. i wish my posts were more exciting and involved dinosaurs and/or rocketships
