I know, Dot's head is wrong and Yakko's mouth is weird. Don't remind me. I did these about a week ago anyway. They were done from memory though, so it must count for something. "Where did the chalk-board come from?", you might not be wondering. Well I'll tell you. While me and Bettina were adventuring in Boston, Shira took the time to paint a section of our kitchen wall with this special black paint that turns any wall into a chalkboard! Since then it's been much easier to jot down phone messages and do cute doodles and then erase them whenever we please. This is a good solution for creative little ones who love to do stuff like draw on the walls. It's so much fun!
<--- And now, for my big achievement, a doodle of Yakko, Wakko, and Dot hugging Steven Spielberg! This is what I did with a pencil...
And this is what I turned it into using Photoshop! I love eeeet! I swear, this has got to be my best work ever! However, that will not stop me from making even more sketches of these guys, they are so much fun to do! It's as if they leap off the page with their manic energy as soon as you draw the final line! That's the joy I believe in being a cartoonist. The thrill you feel as you make friends with a new character. I wish I were Steven Spielberg in this picture.

I remember those little guys! I haven't seen anything about them in years!
ReplyDeleteThere are currently 3 DVD volumes of Animaniacs episodes released so far, and me and my sibs have them all (borrowed from our local library)! The only thing is that these sets only cover 3 quarters of all their episodes. The other quarter, to the best of my knowledge, hasn't been released on DVD yet. Oh well. We're still able to watch 75 fun-filled episodes, and that's quite more than enough for me.
ReplyDeleteAww, those are so cute, work on the chalk drawings though! But better than I would have done!
ReplyDeleteAnd you know you can be the one hugging Yakko Wakko and Dot, you are an artist, remember? You've got the power, all you need is a pencil, paper, and your imagination! Plus your creativity. . .
Rainy ~ What a genius idea! I'll start working on a picture of the Warner's hugging me! Of course in my post I meant it in a more literal sense.
ReplyDeleteI love your artwork Annette, you are getting better and better all the time...love the idea of creating a picture where the Warners are hugging you!
