Artists that inspire me 2/3

An inspiration poster I made for my photoshop class

Text: Alessandra Sorrentio, Storyboard artist and 2D animator, alessandrasorrentio.com, @alessandrasorrentio_2d Alessandra Sorrentio is a storyboard artist and 2D animator that has been working in the industry for over eighteen years. She has worked for studios like Netflix, Pixar, Blue Sky, and Cartoon Saloon. Sorrentio's work is inspiring to me because she has worked for a lot of the studios I hope to work for one day. The attention to detail and the ability to draw on model are impressive and gives me something to focus on in my own work.

My father has the award for best father Christmas 2022

The Merida mug is from my girlfriend who lives with me, it is apparently part one I get the rest on Australia Day (January 26th) because that's when my girlfriends and I celebrate as our Christmas, because it's a day off where we don't have to visit families.

Also celebrating Christmas on that date TECHNICALLY has less coloniser vibes than the day we made this country a Federation under England.

You can't find out everything from books, you know. I think I read that once. THE SECRET OF KELLS (2009) dir. Tomm Moore, Nora Twomey

I want a Lord of the Rings animated series done by Tom Moore.

Cartoon Saloon's style portrays fantastical intensity so well while also carrying the stories they tell with such lightness and fluidity. The 1978 animated version of Lotr leaned on the weight, action, and drama of Tolkien's trilogy but I think Moore could make something that would include the abstraction and artistry the story deserves.

Yes, this is an Open Season poster reference. No, I won't be elaborating.

So this project has been coming together nicely. See below the cut to see how the whole printmaking process went and hear me yak about it!

What started as a sketchbook idea was traced over, refined, flipped, transferred to some easy cut lino, carved, and then today we did some test printing! The first two are the proofs that came out first on dry paper. The second pair of proofs are on dipped paper. The third pair are on misted paper. I used some Bristol smooth because it's what I had lying around. I've also got some sheet watercolor (Either Arches or Winsor+Newton) but I haven't tried it yet. I used Speedball fabric oil-based ink. I feel like I need to go pick a printmaker's brain because it's been a decade since I did this and I don't remember what papers we used among other things. I now also need to figure out if my blotchiness is technique, if it's paper, and whether or not I would benefit from a small lever press. These were burnished with a combination of spoon and thunder egg brayer. Yes I said thunder egg I am just that unintentionally metal. It's like a sliced open geode except it's smooth agate instead of crystals so it's shaped very perfectly for what I needed today.
