In Loving Memory



I really wish the reason for this picture was a happy one but unfortunately far from it. I had some sad news this week, about the death of an old school friend. It was beautiful to see so many messages of love on his Facebook wall the past few days that I just felt I had to do something for his family. Lanfranco, you were so talented. I can only hope my talents have done you justice. You have broken all of our hearts.

Scoobits Layouts



I've been doing layouts this week and last, trying to get back on track with this toy advert we started back in November. We had to put it aside as another project came back to haunt us (there were soooo many changes!!) and my fellow animator Jess and I had to make sure that zombie project was well and truly buried! It looked pretty god in the end though. I'll post it up once its live. In the mean while here are some of the layouts I've been drawing up plus the guides (for the different layers) I did for Jess. I have quite a few posts from this and the last project which I need to post when I get the chance, so watch this space... Maria Xx

New Year Sketches

                           Jan 8th, 2012



Happy New Year! I've not posted for ages as I've just been super busy. 2012 has barely started and I seem to have hit the ground running! Alot of projects coming up this year...in the meanwhile I've been trying to keep up the drawing in particular the life drawing as its something I really need to make more effort to do more. I'm trying to do this daily and at the very leats do one drawing a day.

Befriending the Captain


                           Dec 11th, 2011



My friend asked me ages ago if I could do a drawing for her involving her recent trip to Stockholm. I started it but somehow it sort of morphed into this comic of her encounter with an unsuspecting Swedish hipster. The moral of this story? Beware Brits abroad who befriend bottles of Captain Morgan...

Old Bloo

Dec 8th, 2011


I was looking for something on my laptop when I found this little piece of treasure hiding in one of the many forgotten folders. This is an old sketch; I did this in 2010 when I was working at CN. I really love Bloo, its been far too long since I last drew or animated him.
