strictly animation.

Hello dears and lovelies! My name is Naomi, I'm in my first year studying illustration and animation at Coventry University and my passion is animation. I love it more than food. My pencil feels like an extension of my brain, all that stuff.
I'm a Christian and I love Jesus but I try my hardest not to be a dick about it.
The Keane has influenced me more than any other artist I've ever known and will ever know, but other artists I greatly respect/admire are Al Hirschfeld, Ken Duncan, Jin Kim, De'Von Stubblefield, Chris Sanders, Bernini, Jean Gillmore, Chuck Jones, Egon Schiele, Caravaggio and Fred Moore.
I'd love it if you took a look at my art blog, I have a little celebration over every view I get.

my art blog

It's much more sophisticated on there (I hope) than this old tumblog.

i think a lot of people (not all, not all) who love animation, love glen keane because he is probably the most famous of all disney animators. so they’ve heard of him, but not greats like fred moore, ollie johnston, andreas deja, eric larson, james baxter etc. and that is why they love his work. however, i love glen keane because he simply is my favourite animator. i adore his style, the way he works, the incredibly effortless gestural style. it’s the style that comes from being trained as an artist, and then going on to animation, i think. i could never, ever compete with his fantastic skill, but i do see a strong similarity in our styles and the way we work. essay over.
