Here are some photos of a piece I did with a great group of artist that go under the title 218. This is bit different than how I usually work, I started out just wanting to do some character designs over a fixed silhouette. And since I've always like the shapes bottles (great silhouettes). I combined the two and this is what I came up with.

I had a blast working on this and with the 218 group, I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

I little while back I caught the Totoro Forest Project show at the Cartoon Art Museum and needless to say I was blown away by the collective work of all the great artists who contributed to it. It was inspiring to say the least.

Afterwards a few of us stopped at Mel's for a bite and I did this little sketch in between eating my burger and munching on fries.

Happy new year all!
