Animation Time! - Mr. Brightside Rig.

Today's Inspiration:
It's all intuitive. I just move the paint around, or whatever I'm working with, until it starts to reveal the story in the way I see it.

Animation Time! - Johnny The Box Rig

Today's Inspiration:
We want a vernacular in art. No mere verbal or formal agreement, or dead level of uniformity but that comprehensive and harmonizing unity with individual variety which can be developed among people politically and socially free.
