• At Animation Blast this morning, we saw the short blurb about David Weidman, “… an artist who worked in animation during the Fifties and Sixties at studios like UPA, Jay Ward, Hanna Barbera and Cascade”. We were enjoying the very beautiful and richly-colored images in his website gallery, thinking that the style looked oddly familiar, when we came across this one…

  

  It’s a print we bought at the Fairfax Collectibles Market (on Melrose) two years ago! 

  This print was hanging on our (old) apartment wall in Sydney – and has been one of our favourites. We had been returning to the Fairfax markets many Sundays after that fateful day, hoping to buy another print… but the guy (was it David Weidman’s nephew?) never showed up again.What a buzz to know that there is a website, with more beautiful artwork….

  Jonathan Snow, a very talented & young (he’s only 20!) artist who worked with us this year on our Cosmic Baby pilot, has a new portfolio website: www.powamon.com Go and check it out. There are some really nice drawings and designs, also some animation clips from Cosmic Baby…

  How time flies. It’s almost 1.30am. Off to bed for an early start tomorrow.
