A sad film about Gregor by Petra Zlonoga. I think it's perfectly drawn and executed for her first hand-drawn film. I especially like the squiggly lines that turn to thoughts, pets, and even green cars.

If you are into video games you'll appreciate Bryan Ochalla's small, but fun collection of quirky video game doodles.

This is an amazing animation created by Veronika Obertova. In her own words, this is "a story of Viliam, who lives his own animated life within the real world. Childish fun turns into a problem, the problem becomes a solution. No solution is perfect though. "

Wonderfully heartfelt, I personally think we all have a bit of Viliam in us - that slight antisocial charm, that need to always have a pencil in hand, that ability to be content with life the way you see fit...Simply put, you'll love watching this.

It's Friday and it's been a busy week for us here at DA. It's 11 am, the beer is flowing and we are prepping for our tent at Launch Arte Miami tomorrow. If you are in the South Florida area, stop on by and get yourself a coloring book and some other goodies.

We're feeling inspired so we thought we'd inspire you with some delicious treats as well. This morning I scourged the internet for some videos of people drawing on walls. I can watch them continuously and they amaze me every time. Seeing each drawing come together is my favorite part. Watch the videos, then stop lollygagging and get on your own wall drawing submission for our most recent showcase. It's the weekend. Just sayin'.

We are all doodlers. No matter the background, no matter the profession. Give us a pen and paper and we'll scribble, notate, and draw our way through any topic or, like Vi Hart, through any insipid lecture.

Hart is a serial doodler and self-proclaimed recreational mathemusician. She has recently created a series of videos showcasing doodle exercises that will cause your jaw to drop and question your own intellectual prowess.

The videos are accompanied by Hart's rapid-fire narration about how mathematical concepts and theories can be expressed in doodle games.

There is no doubt Hart is a creative fiend-- the world and ivory tower need more like her. Watch Snakes + Graphs (above), or click out for Stars and Binary Trees.

This is a time-lapse video of Pat Perry creating the above artwork over the course of a few weeks, using acrylic paint, ink, a brush and lots and lots of talent. Visit his site or watch another one of his intricate drawings in time-lapse video.

My favorite part is when he spills the color over the sketch and then begins to fill in the details. Kudos Mr. Perry.

So I spent my bank holiday Saturday with my good friend from olden days Mr. Ash Dando. He is a wonderfully talented art director who helped me to draw a massive heart thing for use as a backdrop on a colourama.

It only took us about 12 hours but we got there!
We are filming the video on Thursday for the new up and coming little artist SPARK.

Check out some of me pics of the work in progress.
