Two more pieces for MerMay 2024 - started doing something a bit different, playing around with having colour contrast with black and white, and I really liked it!

found an old bit of animation from a short film I never finished (about a dog that steals a deer bone from the woods and is haunted by the ghost of the deer). Don't think I ever posted it.

16 frame shooting star animation. January 2022-September 2024 Needlepoint

Frames from my shooting star gif. 16 frames total. Each frame is 8x6.5 inches on a 10” mesh. Designed and animated in photoshop and needlepointed by me. I started drafting this 1/14/22 and finished animating it 9/25/24. It took approximately two years and eight months to finish. This is one of the largest projects I’ve ever worked on and I’m very happy with how it turned out.

Hopping on the #Disember sleigh for this post. I love a good prompt list and @whitneypollett, @theanimatedlife and @lb.illustrates delivered. The prompt was “snow” which immediately made me think of the fairies in Fantasia for some reason. Not sure how many of these I’ll do but it’s a great way to get the creative juices flowing.
