Finally finished!

The animation for our Animation FUNdamentals online class is completed. Now all we have to do to edit the animation and live-action together - add some sound and…there you go.

I used Digicel Inc’s FLIPBOOK software - it is SOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo easy to use.
Many thanks to Kent Braun and the other folks at Digicel.

Since my return from St. Simon’s Island, GA., I have been loaded down with animation work…it’s a VERY good thing…always love to do animation.

Another view of Tybee Lighthouse at North Beach - it is watercolor and ballpoint pen

Here are some drawings/paintings that I have not posted.

This bridge is over in beaufort as seen from the coffee house by the park

Tomorrow is a definite “art” day. I will be over in Beaufort, South Carolina to do more painting. Thinking of taking my oils and my watercolors…I hope we get good weather.

This is a watercolor I did early in the morning at Laguna Beach- it is too delicate to reproduce.

Still Animated!!!!

On Saturday, I had a chance to drive down to St. Simon’s Island to do a little “ON LOCATION” drawing and painting.

I took state road # 17 down to avoid the traffic on I-95 South. My first stop was Darien. Fort King George was erected in 1721 to ward off the Spanish to the South and the French to the West.

I have always been curious about the fort, as the drove through on other occasions.  This time I stopped and took the grand tour (self-guided) through the Museum, the video presentations and the fort, itself.

It must have been a hard life- on a cool morning- I still deluged by clouds of mosquitoes…so the tour, though informative was  accomplished at a rather quick pace. It was very good- it was an exercise in decisiveness for my photographic choices!!!

Here a quick watercolor of the lighthouse on St. Simon’s Island, GA.

I continued to St. Simon’s Island, GA. and spent a wonderful day there drawing, painting, taking photos and videos.

All this and I was back home by 3:15 pm having spent a VERY full “art day“!

Here is an another watercolor - early morning at Santee’s Lake Marion (as in Frances Marion, the Swamp Fox)

Another Ty B. Bear drawing in blue animation pencil.
