Happy Kong Studios & New Song Day! I drew this to celebrate.🍌💥 I can dust the graveyard dirt off my shoulders & say that I’ve been an inhabitant crawling within the infamous Kong Studio walls. Cont-

I had a tiny hand in helping out with the Fortnite x Gorillaz collab. It’s really cool to see everyone finally playing as the band in their Plastic Beach attire & enjoying all the references. All four look amazing in-game & the Lego variants came out so well. 🕹️🪼🎤⚓️

Found out some good news that things I’ve been working on throughout this year will be announced very soon. Looking forward to posting more in the coming months. 💥

I know it’s a hard pill to swallow but learn the basics to draw cars. No matter how long you try to avoid them you will always end up having to draw vehicles some way or another on an animated project. You can’t escape them. PS: I’m currently having a lot of fun drawing cool cars. 🚗 💨

It was so nice to catch up with so many friends at the Titmouse party. Some I haven’t seen in years. I’ve been working remotely so it felt like a whirlwind running into familiar faces every few steps. We got a little rain but I’d say it was a great time otherwise. Wish I could’ve chatted more. 🐦

The end of the year is looking bright. 🙌 #Gorillaz

Icon VS. Artist 💥

Had the pleasure to see “The day the earth blew up” with friends who worked on it.Their hard work can be seen in every frame of the film. The fact it wasn’t shelved away & people get to see it is a miracle. The 2D is a treat for the eyes. Watch it while it’s playing in theaters. Bravo to the team.🎉

The coming months are going to be extremely busy for work but so rewarding. I’m excited to feel the rush of multiple projects coming into fruition. Wish me luck.

Getting your assignments back approved with no notes is the best feeling ever.

Happy 25th, Gorillaz! 🙌 Be sure to sign up for the Gorillaz capsule collection premiering on Feb 25th. 👕 💕 “Buckle up, this ride’s just getting started.”-Murdoc 👀

On the first day of my very exciting job, I’m working with some incredibly talented folks that I’ve admired for years. I’m eager to learn. I’ll disclose more when I am able. 💥

💥 🎈 It was my birthday on the 20th but I was traveling & things got super busy. Thanks to all my friends & loved ones who made the day extra special.

I posted this on the bird app but I still want to see all my options plus there’s more artists on here. Any suggestions for good website builders with art friendly interfaces? Would like video & decent customization for a good price. What are my fellow artists currently using for their websites?

Hey! I’m looking forward to using this more. I plan to post some “best of” work soon. Rebuilding on a new app is always refreshing to me. Everyone who likes your work will come find you but every app leads to a surprise group of new mutuals/art I wouldn’t find otherwise. Thanks for all the support.💥

Oh nice! #CLONEHIGH along with other awesome animated shows are on the front page of MAX. Great to see animation featured. #Emmys 🎉

Thank you. I’m so honored & grateful. 🏆

I took a social media break the past couple months & been enjoying focusing on my current Netflix gig. It’s been fun working on a personal pitch project on the side too. But a lot has happened. I don’t know, I should probably go pop in to see if anyth- . . . . . HELLO?! ✨💥

More designs from that Olive Oyl design pack. They wanted fun new hair styles & fashion but I wanted to make sure she didn’t lose her appeal. I drew a lot of designs but I’m not sure if they released them all.

I saw this on my feed & I thought it looked familiar. A while ago, I did a big model pack of designs for an updated Olive Oyl for King Features. I drew her more classic but they wanted a “modern” look. It was a fun challenge & it’s cool to see these finally pop up in the wild. 🫒

I love when you find out you have the same sensibilities & influences as an artist or coworker you are not aware of or have never crossed paths with, but you feel as tho you’re torn from the same cloth, & you ask yourself, “Damn, why haven’t I heard about you until now?”

I’ve started art directing on a new project with Netflix/Sony the past couple months & haven’t had time to post anything else. It’s been so much fun, with new challenges & skill sets to tackle & hone in. Always grateful for the chance to work with such cool talented people. 💥

The beautifully crafted Silver Jubliee has an official release date! I had a small hand in helping on this. It was a pleasure to do some restoration work for Jamie’s incredible pieces. So much love to Mat for letting me take part & being a legend on getting this beast completed. 💥

I had the honor to be a guest speaker at Calarts talking about my career, maintaining a crew & how to juggle both professional work & personal projects. It was such a pleasure. Looking forward to doing it again. 1/3 🧵

I started this during Cracker Island’s release but got busy with work. I finally had a bit of time to finish it. Always love drawing these cartoon G’s especially Noodle’s new look. ⚡️ 👹 ⚡️

New CLONE HIGH has officially dropped over on MAX. 🧬 All 10 eps are up this time around so be sure to give it a watch! So much great work done for this set of episodes from everyone across the board. I hope we get to make more! Let’s bring Gandhi back, y’all!

Here’s the key art I did for the next season of CLONE HIGH. Dropping on Max, February 1st. 🧬 If you love Clone High and want to see more please watch it on the premiere! The crew made a lot of fun stuff this season. I’m very proud of them.

Saaaaay whaaaaaat? I don’t know what to say but thank you. Clone High is near and dear to me. Our crew did such amazing work and I’m so proud of everything we did. Im honored to be @AnnieAwards nominated with such great company as well. Congrats to everyone! 💥

I’ve done character development on 3 productions including a feature during my break & I’m having a lot of fun. I’m using drawing muscles that I never stretched & pushing myself out of my comfort zone in the process. I hope I can do more work for feature in 2024. #artvsartist

Birthday me.💥 It’s been a very busy year for me & I haven’t been around much but I’m very grateful for everyone in my life who has supported me & my work. Thank you for stickin’ with me.

💥Let’s give this place a try. I’m still getting adjusted here & it will take me a bit to get used to things but hi.
