Recent Updates & Events
A quick update on recent history. After going back to school to study art and animation, getting my first industry job, living the dream for 10 months then living the nightmare (getting laid off with 26 fellow artists and spending 8 months unemployed) I took a job at a construction company ABR USA.
I’ve been doing some web design, trade show publications, some Photoshop paint overs (to show what painting might look like), some advertising and now trying to learn a little Coldfusion (though my brain ain’t too happy). The adventure has made me believe it might be wise for those studying animation to get at least a few credits in graphic design and print. It seems there were hundreds of graphic design jobs for every animation listing I found.
This job seems stable and given the way things are going I think I’ll stay. I’m trying to do some of my own work on the side. Hopefully I’ll have a Grandma Moses type renascence in my old age and get some of these ideas out of the gray matter and onto paper.
Other than that I’m still picking away at my own rambling site Stormvisions. All the rest revolves around my family - they seem fond of me for some unfathomable reason.
That’s all for now.
