Senior Project- Turnarounds

This week I've been busy working on my character turnarounds for senior project.  They are going well so far.  I also did some more exploration art with all the characters in the scene. I have already started my rough storyboarding too. Please visit my site and take a look. :)

Hello and Welcome!

Hello, and Welcome to my blog! I've never made a blog before so this is a first.  On this blog, I will be posting artwork, things that inspire me, and just about what I've been up to with my artistic journey.  My name is Catherine Esch. I am in college about to be a senior this august. I am pretty excited that I am almost done. I am studying animation at Huntington University.  I've always loved animated films.   I never thought I would get into it as a career but, I decided that there is nothing else I would rather do then something that I enjoy doing.  I am fairly decent at drawing. I enjoy drawing  more than I do shading and coloring.  I would say my strongest areas are drawing animals and creatures, life drawing, and animating.  I also enjoy sculpting.  I am a slow artist and I am striving not to be a perfectionist because, that is where I struggle.  I have finally gotten to a point where I have gained a lot of my confidence back and I am ready to start living and stop thinking about where I stand with the rest of the other artists. I would love to get more experience in 2d tradigital animation, z brush sculpting, traditional sculpting, and possibly even some 3d character animation. I hope to do a lot of personal work and personal animations after college to work on some things that I've wanted to work on.  Right now, I am on summer break and I am relaxing and working on some pre-production work for my senior project.  I am working on a children's circus story animation.  It deals with an all animal circus where the animals are running the show.  I will be posting stuff from my projects, and just little fun things I've been doodling soon.  Keep an eye out from my work and I thank you for visiting my blog, there will be much more to come.
