this is my new blog, although i have several others around the internet. i have my own photo and inspiration blog (ameliagiller.tumblr.com) and a street fashion blog (commonbirds.wordpress.com).
i cannot remember a time when i did not draw cartoons. as a nine year old, i wanted to be jim henson and became heavily involved in ventriloquism. i made my own puppets and for my birthday i received the creepiest dummy that i could find online. her name was dolly and my siblings tell me they still have nightmares about her.
this is jim henson, in case you were wondering.as an eleven year old, i'd changed my hero from henson to disney, and wanted to draw princess movies for a living. thank god, that summer i attended a claymation camp for kids my age and soon dropped the princess fever, replacing it with a new found obsession for all things stop motion.
i won't bore you with the many stages of my artistic development. nowadays, i'm very interested in graphic design and animation. here is my final project for geoff marslett's intro class.
i write and draw comics for the daily texan. check out mipsterz and my most recent creation, craigslist!
more to come in the future!

Hey Amelia. 2 things:
ReplyDeleteFirst, great post. I suspect you are going to bring a lot to this class.
Second, I love your animation project. The character design is fantastic and the entire piece was so well done.
I am really looking forward to working with you this semester.
