If You Are Starting to Learn Animation or Continuing It...

There's a book I revisited called Trying by author Kobi Yamada and illustrator Elise Hurst. It shared the story of an individual who marveled at someone's work in sculpture but did not have the confidence to try himself. Thankfully, the artist encouraged him, even through the young man's efforts and failures, to keep trying.

At the end of the book, Elise wrote a message that I would like to share: "For the artists taking their first steps. Be kind to yourself. Keep going. It is worth it."

If you are starting to learn animation or getting back into it, I encourage you to have fun on your animation journey. So keep going; it will be worth it, and you will inspire others to do the same.

Signed Saturday

I’ve been putting together my Neil Gaiman book collection for years now, and this was an amazing addition. This edition of The Ocean at the End of the Lane is illustrated by Elise Hurst, and it includes a print of one of those illustrations. The incredible story about childhood, story-telling, and memory, is recast with these vague, dark, stunning illustrations. This book, signed by both Neil Gaiman and Elise Hurst, comes in a cloth slipcase and has a ribbon to mark pages, and is numbered 206 out of 1,000. I’m treasuring this copy of a beloved favorite of mine.

Signed Saturdays is a weekly series at While Reading and Walking. I’m an avid book collector, and each Saturday, I’ll tell the story of one of my signed books. Feel free to join in at #SignedSaturdays.

I just restarted reading ‘the ocean at the end of the lane’, and i gotta say, wow. This is really fucking good. I’m only 40 pages in but yet again i am so impressed by the way Neil Gaiman writes, especially tone and pacing.

it gets way better because the version im reading is illustrated by Elise Hurst, which just brings the novel to another the level.

The art is beautiful, the writing and the story is epic

Basically what im saying is go read this book. Its brilliant.
