Me

Here's a little picture that Jamie did of me. I thought it was a pretty good likeness so I whacked it up here for all to see. My hair is suprisingly accurate!!!! Thanks Jamie.

Layla Marie

My sister and her boyfriend had their first baby yesterday and I got to see her just there a few hours ago. She is so cute as you can see. Her feet are massive! Congrats Allie and Liam.

I have been all sick for about 3 week now. Tonsillitus set the ball rolling, followed by one of the worst head colds ever. It kinda felt like being underwater. Things sounded funny and I couldn't see too well alot of the time so ended up making faces at people who probably thought I was giving them dirty look or somethin'. Ah well. Feeling mucho better today though.

Annie Awards

How bout this for frickin' great news. El Tigre won two Annie awards a couple of weeks ago over in L.A. The catagories it won in where Character Design in an Animated TV Production (Jorge R. Gutierrez) and Best Animated TV Production for Children. It was also nominated for Best Music in a TV Production and Monica Kennedy of Bouldermedia (pictured above inbetween Dave Thomas, her boyfriend Aiden, Sandra Equihua and Jorge Gutierrez) was nominated for Best Character Animation in a TV Production. Unfortunatly Moni didn't pick up the award but she well deserved the nomination.
It's a shame the show won't be going on any further but it left on a super high note.

Is was about time I got back to basics with my pencils. It has been so long since I have drawn anything with my trusty pencil. I think a lot of the delay was to do with fear of doing "A Bad Drawing". So I sucked it up and got stuck in. I don't think it is that bad. I'm gonna try from now on and do much more pencil work, get rid of some of that rust I allowed to build up!

El Tigre and Frida

Myself and Aido decided to dress as El Tigre and Frida for the Boulder Halloween Party on Friday. We all had a deadly time. There where robots, Ms. Doyles and the milkman, Mucha Wrestlers, Physco Surgeons and even a Scumbag. Fair play to all who dressed up. Ye where deadly!

Chihauhua skull collector

Seen as though Hallowe'en is approaching fast I thought a Chihauhua skull carring Mummy with horns would be enough to keep people entertained!

Mee-ow

George

This is my brother Jonathans dog, George. He is MASSIVE. His one paw is bigger than my head and that is no lie! I'll put up a photo of him compared to my brother it is hilarious.

Meka and Angel (Liddle Bodge or Na-do)

Two of a very, very long list of dogs who where my best pals when I was growing up. Not to forget...Honey, Babe, Jake, Ben, Charlie and Lulu.

Our Trip to L.A for The Emmy's

Shortly after the Emmy nomination my boss asked myself, Paul and Dave if we would like to head over to L.A for the ceremony.....Our answers where, Hell Yeah! Two weeks later after panicing over cocktail dresses and shoes we arrived in Los Angeles.

Myself, Paul,Mike Moon, Dave(Bg God) and Rob in the Disney H.Q the day we arrived in L.A.

After quite a brief encounter with the Red Carpet. This was taken in the Shrine, the venue for the 2007 Emmy's. Sitting down for 4 hours is tough I tells you, tough!

This was the ball afterwards. We where on the upper level looking down on the cheesy rotating jazz band. The bars where all made out of ice. That was pretty deadly!

This is Tammy, Vince, Chiro and Michelle.

and finally the usual crew along with Dave Thomas and Jorge Guitierrez (creator of El Tigre)of Nickeleodeon.

Oh, we never won the Emmy but who cares we where nominated and that meant alot too. The experience was amazing and we got to meet some really fantastic people. We'll just have to go back again and next time WIN!

Chi-Whaa-Whaa!

What is a Scangers favourite pet?
A Chi-Whaa-Whaa!

This is the latest addition to the Boulder Blog. The theme was Scangers....To which some people will not know the correct meaning......
SCANGER or skanger is a derogatory term for a stereotypical member of a youth subculture group in Ireland, similar to the chav in the United Kingdom.
The stereotypical scanger is known to wear a tracksuit, gold jewellery, a replica football shirt (especially Celtic F.C, athelitic shoes, tattoos, fake Burberry caps, gold piercings, is from a working class area, and speaks with an exaggerated accent. Male scangers tend to have cropped ((Commonly Bleached)) haircuts and drive cars with loud sound and exhaust systems and tend to be called boy racers due to their tendency to drive at speed, Pyjamams, bleached-blonde hair and large hoop earrings are popular with howiyas (females).Scangers have a reputation for anti-social behaviour.

Cow

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you find that in alot of animated ads, that have a cow as a leading character, always give male cows(bulls) udders?

What's that all about ???

The 2007 Emmys

Now, just for all of you interested, here is some super news. Boulder has been nominated for an Emmy. In the category Outstanding Animated Programme (for programming one hour or more). This was for the final episode of Fosters Home for imaginary friends . The episode was called "Good Wilt Hunting". It was great to hear this on Monday morning and it nice to get some recognition for all the hard work. Well done to everybody involved....now lets hope we win!

Fern

Here is Fern. Part of The Boulder Blog Theme "Green". I am happy with the turn out but I really have to start working on backgrounds for things. Hope you like!

Gizmo

The last theme on the Boulder Blog was 8-bit ......Umm. To me 8-bit ment pixels. So this is my take. A pixel Gizmo.

Me.....T,he,he!

Hi there. Well, it's all been incredibly exciting here for the last few weeks. We have moved into a new studio right in the centre of Dublin City.....and I mean smack bang in the middle. Today is our first day in the new studio and it is fresh and clean and new and deadly. I really like it anyway! Oh and get this, I was really worried that my two plants would get left behind in the move and mentioned it to one of removal guys and he personally took them down here in his car. Big up to Mr. Removal Man.....your the best!

I have just posted a little picture of myself that I did for AidO))) last week. Seen as I have haven't been posting much I figured I would just slap this up....even if it is of myself. For those of you who don't know me it may be of some entertainment value.

Little Kid in PJ's

Tis been a while since I have posted anything but sure I have no time to be doing anything but work these days. We are on the last episode of the first season of El Tigre, and the pressure is on. I would be lying if I said I will be glad of the break . Just to mess around with some other little ideas I may have swimming around in my head. They always tend to stay as ideas and never materialise into anything more. Sure we'll see.

In the Pink

Chow Yun Fat

This is a wee doodle I did for the Boulder Artblog under the theme Summer Blockbuster 2007. It's Chow Yun Fat from the still to come Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

Unoxicorn

Eventually it is finished but I missed the deadline by a couple of days. I'm still gonna hijack the boulder blog and stick it in the middle of another theme anyway. This is my Hybrid animal a Unoxicorn, a cross between a fox and a unicorn. Again I'm not too sure if this will count as a unicorn is a mythical creature or is it? This is in memory of railway fox and timid vixen.

Just No Time

It's been a little while since I have posted anything. I've been mad busy in work with El Tigre and another little test I'm doing. I've been trying to get something together for the Boulder Art Blog too and have a piece in the works but it is findiing the time to finish it is almost impossible. The theme is Hybrid animals.....Wuzzles if you like!
To be honest I doubt if I get many visitors to my site so for the odd visitor I'll post something soon.

Eleven minus the 'E'....

Jamie Teehan or Teenwolf (umm) as he likes to be called from time to time, set a two week task for the Boulder artists going with the theme, Eleven/11..... I decided to minus the E from the Eleven and there you go.......Elven.

Not sure if this will count but what the hell!

WeeWabbit!

Let me introduce a few friends

I have managed, with kind help from Fran to attach links to some amazing artists. Some of which I work with and others that have inspired my own work. So check them all out, I'll keep updating it as I go on but there are so, so many.

AidO)))

This is an image I did of AidO))) on his guitar as you can see. It is an animated piece but he asked me not to put it up until the sound has been put to it, so until then the still will have to do.
Thanks Aido your the best!

'Cause I enjoyed the first one so much

Ello,ello,ello. As the title of this post suggests I'm sure you get the idea...... I was out with my Mam over the weekend being Easter and all and the fact that I missed my dog Angel, had alot to do with it .I found myself rooting through some of my old sketchbooks, doodles and notebooks which still are kinda cool so I'll try get some of that stuff up on the blog for the laugh.
