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.

It's much more sophisticated on there (I hope) than this old tumblog.
Because leak or not, I’m fucking hyped over older Astrid in HTTYD2, here’s Chris Sanders’ own take on older!Astrid.
HTTYD2 is gonna be amazing.

“Observe life and do what you are inspired to do! If you are inspired to do one thing, great. If you are inspired to do many things, then do many things! Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you have to focus on ONE single area of any art form to make it as an artist, or even to BE an artist. You will not know what you are great at, or love, until you have tried it. So TRY IT.”

I got the art book for The Croods, and one of my favorite pieces of artwork was this pretty simple sketch by Chris Sanders. Just goes to show how much I love the man’s work; the pic captures a small part of what I think makes this movie stand out.
