Bye-Bye COOP...


Hullo!
    Here I am, at the reception desk on my very last day at the Canmore Community Cooperative Workshop. It has been a fantastic summer, and if circumstances provide, I will certainly be back next summer. I will definitely be visiting during the year, and keeping in contact with everyone. There is even talk of a cooperative Still Life Class, guided remotely by my correspondence. My art-work will be displayed at the COOP in my absence, and I will post upon it's official un-veiling. Please, all you fellow artists abroad, consider the COOP as a beautiful opportunity for a mini art-retreat in the mountains. You beginners, consider the COOP a wonderful place to meet with people of all skills and skill levels to 'cooperate' together. You musicians, this is home to a thriving group of musicians, a great open-mic night, and a unique venue to share your trade. Everybody else, the COOP is exactly what you want to make it, it's a ready-made community waiting for your input, and your vision, and your own personal brilliance. Trust me, this is the beginning of something beautiful, and I was honored to be a part of it. 
Cheers,

Preview Clip!

Hullo, 
Right now I am working on a new animation, "honey, honey (you are here.)" An estimated 3 minutes long at completion, and at 8 frames per second, we're looking at a daunting 1440 frames. Here's a short clip of my first few seconds that have been completed. I hope to be finished in time for the GIRAF4 animation festival in September. 
Cheers!
