Actual nightmare fuel

One animator put it plainly: “You have no idea how frustrating it is to see press release after press release touting how much money our animated film made and how many nominations we got; then [the studio] turns to people who have worked here forever and says, ‘We don’t need you anymore.’” Heh.

Poor Bubba has been going through some big health issues lately, and now he’s getting his teeth done. Send him some good healing vibes!

Tansy is wonderful and has commissioned an entire series of illustrated book covers from me in the past, please read this!

once again tapping the sign that fandom can be just be you and a small number of other like minded freaks

because Jurassic Park is trans rep

Hey creatives: Folks will remember. If you were aggressively against AI, like Gutierrez was as recent as last year, and then suddenly turn around and go NO I GET IT NOW IT'S AMAZING as soon as you get a project with a big payday? Your peers will not forget that. You will never be trusted again.

Repost!

Animation takes so long to produce you have to invest in 2 seasons to build any momentum for a show. You can't wait & see. Once studios started treating cartoon shows as something you wait to see how season 1 performed first before greenlighting a 2nd season it has devastated the animation industry.

Rocky has arrived at the #MetGala

This right here. I know art is a “luxury” and when people can’t afford even the basics, it’s understandable that they aren’t spending money on art stuff. So if you still support artists in these though times, know how much we all appreciate it. (And don’t feel bad if you can’t.)

The way this movie has me in a chokehold right now 🪨🚀🌟 #projecthailmary

"Gnome Show", an original series project created by Cas van de Pol (known for his parody videos). Pilot episode >> www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9Do... He's used to working with other indie animators, and I note that Mehdi Alibeygi has joined his team here.

I’ve had a really rough March on top of everything else that’s already been rough, hence my disappearing for a bit. Yer girl isn’t doing so hot! But Pokopia has been doing some major lifting for my mental health.

From the first trailer of "Kindred Spirits", the new animated feature film by Tomm Moore & Cartoon Saloon (Secret of Kells, Song of the Sea, Wolfwalkers) + Folivari. Coming in 2028. Full video >> www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQn9...

It would be cool to have a legislature that acted to defend its own constitutional prerogatives and, maybe as a treat, the interests of the people it represents too.

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

Hey pirates you should maybe go archive as much Cartoon Network stuff as possible now.

Just a reminder that it takes an extreme amount of effort, luck, blood/tears to make any sort of film or show. Years and pieces of your soul perhaps. If you are a fan and a show doesn’t go the way you like, that does not give you permission to harass the creators. It is -their- show, blood, tears.

We are in the rare and unique position where indie animation can be unique creative visions unfettered by corporate interference or IP shit Why would you, as the fan, demand that the vision of the creator, who you claim to love, bend to your demands Kill your inner exec

Maybe the million and oneth study will be the one that convinces people

I’m glad we all united in the power of pure spite

Found this beautiful picture of my parents moving into our San Diego home in the 90s

cool cool cool cool coolcoolcool

Catherine O'Hara was, is, always will be a damn legend! Rest in peace, legend. You will be missed.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

One of the commissions I did last year for a Xmas present. I'm so proud of how they turned out! #kpopdemonhunters

Happy birthday/adoption day to this bestest boy, he’s 15 this year 💖

Eyyyyy I did this cover!

My list of fave TV shows and movies from this year. Some are older but new to me! You can see where I went through a Superman/DC binge this summer lol

Merry Christmas from this dapper boy🎄

Why yes, that’s Dana Scully as this year’s tree topper, the angel that she is 🎄

I feel like I'm going to get a lot of use out of this Pluribus screencap

Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

This has to be one of the greatest runs any director has ever experienced.

It’s my time

They literally ruin everything they touch

My friends had to say goodbye to their beloved pup Chester a few weeks ago and I drew a pet portrait in his honor 🌈

A lot of people are quoting this post and that's good because they should, AI sucks and robs us of something special and only mediocre uncreative piss-babies rely on it to make anything at all, fuck AI, p.s. Emma Thompson is now the president, sorry, that's just how it is

Been on a creative and productive kick for the first time all year. It’s been nice to make stuff again! Of course it’s all commissions so I can’t show any of it… 🫠

If you ever wondered why there aren’t many cartoons anymore this is it.

My brother and dad wanted to go surfing in Palm Springs, famously a desert, for the lulz 🌴
