HAPPY NEW YEAR

I would just like to wish everyone a happy new year and wish you all a safe and fun 2012 filled with inspiration, excitement and adventure !
In the next week or so i will be going away on holiday with a group of friends and then shortly after that is my birthday. So i will be absent for the next 2 weeks more or less, so sorry if my DA becomes a little ghost town.

In the mean while, here is some updates to let you know what is going on.

HAPPINESS - My new animation project ' Happiness ' is currently on hold, do not fear, i have not given up on it, i have come to far already for this project to be dropped. I still have alot of things to work out, in terms of visual and story. I want to produce something at its finest and not just finishing it half heartedly. I will be re-working and tweaking alot of the main foundation so it may take some time. So in the mean time the project is on hold in till further notice.

Oceans without a shore - Bill Viola is a contemporary video artist who is one of my biggest inspirations in my animations and art. One of his video pieces - Oceans with a shore - i was lucky to witness when it show cased here in Melbourne a few years ago. It has probably been the most inspiring visual experience i have ever seen in my life, and i hold the experience very close to me. So i thought what better way to bring in the near year with a triptych piece inspired by Oceans without a shore. I would like to upload the first panel before i go away, but depending on time and how busy i get we will see how things go. Sketches are already complete for panel one and two, they just need to be drawn digitally. I plan on experimenting with filters and textures to create a really different feel for these pieces.

So there you have it ! Look forward to some new and different art pieces this year.

Take care everybody and ill be back, up and running by the end of January when i come back from Vacation.

PEACE
