I have been working so feverishly on the 1000 Pound Cake website that it has pretty much taken over the hours that I am awake. I love doing the work, but sometimes, staring at the same food planet for hours in a row can be draining. That is why I made this.

I pulled my first all nighter last night at Moxie. Well sort of... At eleven thirty I started to render an animation and so for the next hour my computer crunched out numbers while I had nothing to do. Fortunately the studio has all sorts of toys.

Boulder is absolutely amazing. They say there is a curse that was set by the native Arapahoe Indians. The myth says that if you visit Boulder, then you will certainly return or possibly never leave. That is a fine curse by me.

Yesterday Kate and I were walking around the Pearl Street Mall and there was a store called 'Into The Wind'. It was the coolest store I have seen here yet. All they sell are fun toys like kites and tops and puzzles and anything else that kids want.

Kate and I were super outdoorsy today and it felt so nice. We rode our bicycles everywhere. We went to the Farmer's Market. Then we climbed a bit on the mountain behind my house.

I was not joking when I said I as not used to this Colorado climate, it snowed today! It is May! I am out of school! My office mate Sean had to work from home because he lives up in the mountains and he got it even worse than the majority of Boulder.

I just completed my second day working for Moxie Sozo. Fortunately I don't do landscaping or any other outdoor activity because I am not used to the Colorado climate at all.

The muscles in my feet that allow me to walk have never been used as much as they have this week. They are in a continual state of trying to regenerate while I roam the campus without my bicycle.

Hello all! I have had the honor of being trusted with the responsibility of creating amazing posters for The Crazy Monkeys and this latest poster has been one of the most challenging. Unlike the ease and snap of the November 13th poster, this one requires so much stinking text!

It took many hours, but here is the ultra sweet water colored auditions poster! I hand drew everything then scanned it into photoshop and arranged it the way I liked. Then I printed that out on to two 8.5x11 sheets that I taped together so I could paint the real 11x17 sheet.

I am on a role! This desktop is my first experiment with watercolors and it reflects the future style of Monkey posters to come. I want the posters to be part of a set so hopefully they will be more collectable. The new style is heavily influenced by Marc Johns.

I took this photograph nearly a year ago when it was 20 below at Purdue! Just like the Mall of America, Greyhouse is heated only by body heat and so the windows froze everyone's breath pretty fast.

I weighed the pros and cons and determined that relying on Vimeo to host my videos instead of embedding Quicktime MOVs, is the better option.

I have been neglecting the fact that this website is purely flash and super slow. Dear Pixar, don't judge me because I am not a master of web development. I am still a really good animator/technical director.

Today the Monkeys rescued this cat from the rough streets of West Lafayette. We were all coming out of practice and there was Wendy just laying in a corner looking pretty shabby. She had gum stuck to her foot and hardly any hair on her hind quarters.
