Feelin' Pokemon Go.
Ever saw "One Crazy Summer"?

That movie made me want to animate SO BAD. I saw it on Cinemax sometime in 87,88? Ever since then I've been keeping busy animating stick figure battles on the edges of textbooks, notebooks, newspapers and such.
Ever saw "The Secret City" with Mark Kistler?

I first saw it on PBS. Every saturday morning Commander Mark would school your ass on perspective, shadowing, contour, etc.
Ever saw "Comic Book Confidential"?

Shit. I had always liked sketching and doodling and after watching Comic Book Confidential I thought: "Now I can pick any topic and run with it"
More recently, Vine helped me set achievable 6 second goals.
Instagram has helped me set longer 15 second goals.
A few months ago I came across a postcard Art Spiegelman sent me back in '99.
Whenever I feel like setting my pencil down I look up at that postcard and soldier on.
