Amaze Amaze Amaze! 👩‍🚀🪨✨ I’m obsessed with a rock and completely in love with both the movie and the book. This isn’t my usual art style at all, but I had so much fun designing it and bringing it to life. Definitely going to be hyper-fixated on this for a while 😆 I felt so many emotions watching it, and I already can’t wait to experience it again. @projecthailmary @andyweirofficial @jortface @phillordy @chrizmillr #projecthailmary #motiondesign #gracerockysavestars #projecthailmaryfanart

I recently had the pleasure of art directing and animating a Toonami ID for Adult Swim. The concept was simple but fun. Tom gets distracted and accidentally hits a flashing red button, setting everything into zero-gravity chaos. I really enjoyed blending 2D and 3D animation, experimenting with different techniques, and using Redshift’s toon shader to bring it all to life. I love how it turned out! This is the second Toonami ID I’ve had the opportunity to direct. Huge shoutout to @davidricklescreative for turning my 2D-stylized Tom into a 3D model for those close-up shots!

Oreo 🖤🤍🖤

Yesterday, Cody and I said goodbye to our little girl, Oreo, at home with our dog Thorin. Oreo has been a part of my life for the past 16 years, and it truly feels like I grew up with her. I’m so thankful for every moment we shared. We’ll miss her constant barks for treats, watching her eagerly run to the gate, ready for her little walks, her spastic happy dance for food, calling her by all the nicknames I gave her over the years, like Pooter Jenkins and most of all we'll miss her. I’m grateful that Cody and I were there with her in our home together, holding her until the very end. It hurts so much, but I take comfort in knowing she’s no longer in pain and has crossed the rainbow bridge, enjoying her walks, treats, and all the behind the ear scratches. We will miss her more than words can express. Our lives won’t be the same without her, but I'll cherish the mark she’s left on our hearts. Oreo was the best little girl, feisty, independent, lovable, and our best friend. It's so difficult knowing we’ll never hear that little whine she greeted us with day and night, her cute little stretches or see her excitement for food and treats. Thank you for everything, Oreo. We miss you so much. Forever would not be enough, but I’m grateful for the 16 years and 1 months we had together. 🖤🤍🖤 We love you Oreo. December 2, 2008 - January 6, 2025

Here's a throwback to a fun project I worked on for @adobe ! This is a snippet from a larger project where we created six videos for their typography course. I had a lot of fun bringing this to life! #MotionGraphics, #AfterEffects, #Animation, #MotionDesign, #GraphicDesign, #DigitalArt, #aescripts #TypeAnimation, #Adobe

I love baking in my spare time, and it's always so much fun when I get the chance to collaborate with Food Network Channel! Last summer, I crafted the design and animation for the broadcast package of their Summer Baking Championship. Check out these styleframes and motion tests I whipped up! @spillt #motiongraphics #motiondesign #ae #c4d #design #styleframes #styleframesaturdays #thepitchgraveyard
