I Really Enjoy Everything There Is About Clay Animation, Every Aspect Of It Is Awesome. And The Folks I Have Met Are Some Truly Amazing People. I'm A Hard Worker, That Always Has A Goal. I Enjoy Football And Outdoor Activities (besides painting) When I Can.

Hey There Jeff, A fellow Coloradan eh'? Your website is flipping sweet man! You are an extremely talented artist - truly amazing work. I was looking at your blog and I seen that you and your wife are making a Stop Motion short and the castle walls and doors look really well done. You pay a lot of attention to details and if the sculpting and animating bug bites you guys it will be a treat for all of us indeed. I hope you will consider posting your progress here with us. Well anyway, just wanted to say hey and Welcome to the site. I'm going to go digging through your old posts and catch up with your creative process - Mike
(^ time to finger point at you. thumbs up even, oddly.
are you thinking of making an award for longest lasting member in here?
oh wait! you'd have to give that to yourself!
(^ you any plans on travelling or you a stick in the mud ?
your mold making images above tell me you at least know HOW to do some stuff I"ve not the stomach for at the moment, and chris rogers is swamped foing his own work.
The Avatar is actually carved out of wood. I have a stop motion improve piece I work on when there is nothing else to do. But it's been so busy with the magazine and the production company, that it's on hold for awhile.
Great sculptures!!! I work in chavat and cast in latex for my puppets most of the time. But I love to work in Van Aken.
