FNV Bondgenoten

FNV Bondgenoten demonstrates agains the expence cuts that were negotiated in the Kunduz agreement. 
They kicked off their campaign with the animation : the social desert.
I had only four days to creat all the artwork for the animation. I had to study the style of Morris' Lucky Luke, to give the design a western touch. This was really a tough deadline, but given the circumstances, I think the clip turned out allright.
Animation was done by Hans Buying.

Life drawings

We had a double model at yesterdays life drawing session. Within the same amount of time, 5 or 10 minute poses, as we normally draw one model, one becomes extra focused and concentrated. The models were very expressive. Great session!
