<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Wow, it's been a while. More to come soon, but for now I just wanted to post up a sketch of a critter inspired by Jim Henson's "The Dark Crystal". I love the designs in this movie, and have always been horrified and entranced by the Skeksis, the antagonists of the film. So with a bit of free time the other day I decided to try my hand at creating something similar. I think it's too dinosaur-like and needs to resemble a bird a bit more, but overall I'm happy with the result. </span></div>

It was one of the films featured in this year's Crazy 8s Film Festival, and I was excited to help them put together the opening credits for their piece. Instead of building everything in Flash this time, I wanted to try something a bit different and decided to try creating builds and backgrounds in Photoshop instead. It wasn't quite what I was expecting, but you don't know unless you try, right? Overall I was pretty happy with the outcome. Here are the layouts for the piece:</span><br />

Despite the fact that I will always love the Prairies, Van has one thing that they don't: Spring. I'm talking an actual, pronounced, April showers bring May flowers (and there are flowers. Lots of them!), green, warm, beautiful, Spring. I think that one of the best ways to enjoy the warm weather here is to visit the celebrated Nitobe Memorial Gardens at the University of British Columbia.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This is one of the best and most authentic Japanese gardens outside Japan. I didn't have a chance to do many sketches this time, so I guess that means I'll have to go back and visit this wonderfully tranquil place again sometime soon. Sigh, such a chore. For now, here's just a small taste.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
