Good day, folks! You're talking to an aspiring Tri-State born artist living in the L.A. suburbs named Harry Aguiluz, who's influenced by the likes of newspaper comic artists and stylized cartoons typically from the 1950's to this very decade.

Thanks for dropping by today!

Japan's best stop-motion studio isn't loud about it. But the quiet charm of its work speaks for itself.

A movie that's *partially filmed at* where I'm from.

(I guess you can count the subsequent city location as well)

Took part in @peanutscollab.bsky.social and redrew a classic Peanuts strip, one of my favorites. I believe a lot of my artistic impetus is attributed to Schulz, so it's hard to not draw these characters how he himself drew them without feeling like sacrilege, so I forced myself to work differently.

Regarding so much of today's election, one quote comes to mind from a wise man;

"Funny. I guess destiny isn’t the path chosen for us, but the path we chose for ourselves."

The most overlooked thing when talking about the Dark Age of Animation is the fact that digital animation tools were invented during that period. Stuff like bone-rigged tweening and digital ink and paint were invented in the 1960s and the 1970s.
