Art Buddy: A Jump Start


Sven is an art friend I met through my association with Scarlet Star Studios and because he is also a graduate of Gretchin's Artist's Way Creative Clusters. Sven and I have stayed connected through weekly Artist's Way check-ins with each other, and I so appreciate his feedback and creative encouragement. Sven is a talented artist in many arenas, but one of his favorites is stopmo, stop motion animation. To learn more about Sven and his art, click here. The blog maintained by Sven (and Gretchin) is also a fascinating way to learn more about the many facets of Sven.

Here is what Sven had to say when he submitted his image:

It only seemed natural that I ought to do some animation with my Art Buddy!

Stopmo is famously laborious, what with planning and fabrication…It's so easy to get bogged down.

My animation table's been gathering dust far too long. So: what a treat do some improvisational work again! Thanks for the jump start. :-D
