Hey E and Lynn,

A while back you guys watched my animations with me and seemed to enjoy them. I appreciate that. I asked if I ever did anything else would you guys like to see it, so I have something new that has a very personal touch to both of you.

I am honored to be you guys’ friend (although I feel like everytime I’m around you guys I manage to put my foot in my mouth, but I’m a foot-in-mouth kinda guy). Having both of you as friends has shaped me to the person I am today, thank you. Both of you make me want to be a better person and being around people who are the opposite of toxic is just…a rare blessing.

This animated short is 24 minutes long, it will akin to something you’d see on MTv late at night, with some dark notes and ways I interpret the world around me. But the message of the entire short is about “hope.” And I have come to the conclusion that hope is made in a community. You two are part of my community.

Also, I’m only sharing this with 20 people. You two are among them. There is a very special part in the middle of the video just for you two, and I don’t think you’ll have a problem finding it. Also at the end with the singing bear.

Art Project: “Surfing the Apocalypse“

The Two Rules I had for myself

1. could never lean into seeking external validation, all of it had to be what I found had meaning to me.
2. I picked around twenty people to share this with, personally and you are one of them. You never have to watch, share or reply. I love it and watch all my videos over and over…this has been very healing to me.

This is a reflection of my how my brain interprets the world around it and how I see things.

oh and pay no attention to the likes thing below, it’s some code I put in to be funny and now I don’t know how to get rid of it, nor do I care… lolz.
