"The Legend of the Reindeer" 2D Sequence

This is by far my favorite thing I worked on at Elf on the Shelf- a short 2D sequence that I designed, boarded, and keyed.  Just realized it was released on YT so I am happy to share it at last!

Happy Holidays!!!

I had some spare time between midnight and 2am for a few days, so I made a Happy Holiday card just for you!

STAMOS!!!

 

Sometimes your world must stop because you need STAMOS!!! on a t-shirt: https://www.teepublic.com/user/jothezette

May The Face Be With You

Sometimes it’s fun to poke through the morgue... here’s a 20 year-old #animaniacs fanart I did before #MayTheFifth was a thing.

Domestic Goddess

When I finish the housework I'm like... #DomesticGoddess mode achieved.  Made this design available on merch for anyone who wants to celebrate the mom who makes home feel like nirvana: https://www.teepublic.com/user/jothezette

Sketching out the #Avengers for a quick little fun project me and Nate and our buddy Zoran are working on in our spare time...

It's been a long day/week/month... I need chocolate.  Happy Day After Easter!

Back From Hunt

The other day, Nate went on a pre-dawn hunt and brought home much-needed spoils.

Doodles from Today's Stream

I'm working on my book illustrations on the livestreams for the time being (since I'm so behind!) but made time for some fun doodlage.

Some doodling while talking with the fine folks at the #Animanicast!

Total Redhead Live

So today's analog stream didn't work out...so I turned those lemons into a Total Request Live Stream. Ended up with a #redhead theme somehow, we got #Mitzi bellydancing, #RedHotRidingHood, #Cherry, #PeggyBundy, and #popeye, who may very well have been a redhead before he went bald for all we know.

Total Request Live #07

A mostly cat-themed TRLS session today- I'm not complaining!  I really like #KittyYzma.  #EmperorsNewGroove #Mewsette #GayPuree #Danny #CatsDontDance #Cassandra #Goal #sketches

Fun and challenging Total Request live stream session today!

Analog Livestream Sketches

The "analog" portion from today's livestream.

Total Request Live II

Sketches from my request livestream...with and without reference for laughs!

Progression of a Pose

I wish I never had to clean up a drawing.  The more I work something the more it loses the energy and expression I can imagine in the original crappy scribble.  Here is a brief glimpse into my madness.

New Year's Resolution #9

New Year's Resolution #9: drawing courses out the wazoo!

Choosing A New Jo

Trying to figure out colors for a new Cup O' Jo...

Request Sketchlings

Took requests for sketchlings on a livestream...some of these are super wonky because I was trying to remember what the characters looked like.

Dust it off!

It's a brand new year and my materials are so last decade- time to redraw, renew, reinvigorate with some crappy drawings I that I will fuss over probably for another year until I give up and use them anyway.

Hilda's Midnight Ride

Well, I got a piece finished for #HildaArtShow2020 using real honest-to-goodness paints and such. It's not what I had hoped, but committing to paint something for the first time is a something for me. Hopefully someone will be willing to pay for the novelty of such an artifact. Cheers!
