Hallo dear NvP readers! I’m so sorry for the lack of posts. My school work has been taking up most of my time (practically every waking moment). During my first term at Art Center, I revisited the times of all-nighters, ramen, and highly-caffeinated drinks.
Only now have I able to breathe a little easier and take in some of the fine galleries and sights that I missed my first few months in California. But enough excuses… and now for today’s inspirational clip: Mark Ryden painting Pink Lincoln for this past April’s exhibition, The Gay 90’s – Olde Tyme Art show, at the Paul Kasmin Gallery, New York.

Rodolphe Guenoden (aka Rod Guen) is an animator, comic artist, storyboard artist, and fight choreographer. He has worked on Kung Fu Panda, Over the Hedge, Prince of Egypt, The Road to El Dorado, Madagascar, and Flight. His figures are fun and athletic — he really understands how the human body works and draws it effortlessly.
Not only is he one of the humblest and friendliest artists I’ve ever met, he can draw circles around just about anybody.
Hello to our dear friends at NvP! Unfortunately, Penguin and I have been über-busy and have not been able to post as of late. Penguin’s been working on some spots and a documentary. While I’ve moved twice in the past month and already have had my new apartment flooded twice since I’ve arrived! Oh, my precious art supplies (those illustration boards didn’t stand a chance).
Thanks for your patience as we get our stuff sorted out. In the meantime, feel free to browse the archives and enjoy our past posts.
