Cartoon Doodle no. 1: A drawing pen cartoon doodle that can be viewed right-side up or upside down. A half an hour of drawing time. I subtitled this one: If M. C. Escher drew funny cartoons.

 

Cartoon Doodle no. 1: The tree in this graphite pencil and white charcoal drawing began as brainstorming for my current painting-in-progress. I decided to create a "finished drawing" around it since this footage will not be used in my time-lapse completion of my current painting.

 

First Completion of Time-Lapse Painting, Part One: This is the first of two parts that cover the completion of my current painting. I began this painting before starting my YouTube channel, and several challenges face me in making time-lapse photography of my painting process:

1) I have Fuchs Dystrophy, which is a corneal eye disease that requires me putting my face close to the canvas. Staying out of the way of the camera is difficult. 2) Oil paint throws off a lot of glare, which requires juggling lamps and window light to keep it away from the action. 3) Lighting is inconsistent as a result and so, when combined with my visual difficulty, my photographic process is one of trial and error. I think I will work on smaller canvases for the foreseeable future as time lapse projects, since small canvases are easier to light and photograph at close quarters.

At the end of this video, there is a high resolution still image of the completed work so far. The second video will see me finish the top half of the painting, and perhaps even the gallery wrap trim (or that may come as a third video).

 

Chum Bait: This YouTube Short animation is a series of doodles based on cartoon sea creatures. These brief scenes capture the strange quality of the experimental soundtrack.

 

Gravity Pending: Gravity Pending is an animation made for my website in 2018. Even a simple animation is labor intensive, so where I have tinkered with the art form, I have turned these liabilities into assets by concentrating on visual and audio experimentation rather than conventional storytelling. The strange format will be a feature for all my flash content converted into video, so I apologize in advance.
