Hello Jack

I have finally managed another update. I have been busy with school, but it was nice to do a personal piece. I wanted to practice an underwater painting with some reflections. Hope you guys like it. The original was created in Corel Painter X and is much larger and higher-res, but this is the best I can get out of Blogger.

WheRe the WiLD ThinGs ARe!



Where the Wild Things Are is a touching movie based on the Maurice Sendak beloved classic. The movie is directed by Spike Jonze with great visual effects by the Jim Henson people. The movie is not for kids, but for adults who read the book when they where children and loved it. It is kind of scary and dark for kids and will be above their heads. The book was kind of dark and so the movie does well to keep this. The movie strikes a strong emotional chord and is more emotionally realistic then most movies. I cannot express how great it is too see a movie set aside CG in favor of real puppets. It lends the characters much more believability and connection. Great movie about family and growing up as a kid. Must see. Great soundtrack too! Follow the link below for a great Fan site.
