I'm working on two little pieces for Christmas, both involving the 3 Magicians. Today I'm posting some of the studies I've done for them and I will post the finished pieces later this week. I just started painting the finals of both today so make sure you come back to visit in a few days.<br />
<br />
The first is a Nativity scene, except I have transformed Bethlehem into the Georgia woods and the 3 Magi into you know who. You can't tell as much from the studies, but the characters are inspired from this amazing Nativity set I bought last week during a trip to Mexico of hand painted clay figurines.<br />

</div>The second piece is based on one of my favorite things about Christmas: The lights! More specifically, memories of sitting on the couch as a little girl opposite the Christmas tree. At 5 or 6 a Christmas tree seems massive, and I used to relax my eyes so all the lights would blur into giant soft orbs of color.<br />

I just saw that they published it online so here you go, better late than never :-)<br />

This is a strawberry field at the edge of the woods where the 3 Magicians go to find turtles. The box turtles love to eat wild strawberries and make their homes in holes beneath the grass.<br />

Here are some little sketches of my 3 Magicians. The character designs were finalized a couple of years ago based off the concept of my little brothers and I as matryoshka dolls. However, since I plan on starting production again next month I've been coming up with lots of little story pieces about my heroes that veer away from the original designs. These little visual development pieces explore the characters personalities a little more. All of the vignettes I've been doing take place in the enchanted pine woods in the first house I lived in when we moved to Augusta, GA. At that age the creek and woods behind our house were mysterious and magical. I love the idea of sharing the magic of that place and bringing it to life. Hope you enjoy these little sketches. There are a lot more coming so stay tuned!<br />

With everything that's been going on, I had to put production for <a href="http://3magicians.blogspot.com/"><b>3 Magicians</b></a> aside for a little while. Well, this summer I'll be picking up production again with the hope of finishing sometime next year. In that spirit, I've started gearing up by doing some <a href="http://3magicians.blogspot.com/"><b>3 Magicians</b></a> inspired paintings and character development. Here are a couple of watercolors I did of my 3 little heroes in my sketchbook. Enjoy and keep your eye out for more coming soon.<br />

However, this past week or two I've been doing some paintings relating to 3 Magicians. The characters in the film are based on a set of Russian Matroyshka dolls I used to play with when I was younger. When I was little I thought the dolls resembled me, my mother and my brothers and sister. So recently, I've been doing some exploratory paintings of Matroyshka dolls based off both of the original set I owned as a girl and a newer set. I love the pattern and bright colors and I've been playing with how I can adapt those types of patterns into my own personal folk art. Anyway here is what I've been up to.<br /><br />Pastels<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuKpqNOjCnSdndDJTetqD9gGm9po-6jhCg8aTYD81sMISddrlUyKQ_5A-2TyZQYJx0qaGdpmbTjOP7sG07vdAE1jbCMc0M5sVV-qOi2RC9HaWmv9WMYZ12VgByLbuNI5Sq1EMySZWB7io/s1600-h/PastelMatroyshkasSm.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 282px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuKpqNOjCnSdndDJTetqD9gGm9po-6jhCg8aTYD81sMISddrlUyKQ_5A-2TyZQYJx0qaGdpmbTjOP7sG07vdAE1jbCMc0M5sVV-qOi2RC9HaWmv9WMYZ12VgByLbuNI5Sq1EMySZWB7io/s400/PastelMatroyshkasSm.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342211250948149762" /></a><br />Watercolors<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisu1PolTasF9z3VaDP3I8zG2TJSxnwBRaE67Lf2e6mzudDZww9VpuuR0Z_x-66j5zJ7EuEFjbtnn0ebQJIcsxXiwoLv1-niI9ZsByTOchjvCKBauX6P3_aZgTEc1QfkFtjYjQY8Ji86bE/s1600-h/MatroyshasDarkRed.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 306px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisu1PolTasF9z3VaDP3I8zG2TJSxnwBRaE67Lf2e6mzudDZww9VpuuR0Z_x-66j5zJ7EuEFjbtnn0ebQJIcsxXiwoLv1-niI9ZsByTOchjvCKBauX6P3_aZgTEc1QfkFtjYjQY8Ji86bE/s400/MatroyshasDarkRed.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342211605589275650" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA3Ngmmr_kBsnCwpkts1RV9XZoGmj9EQVCaeGu5_kZm6ancDSF5GMYfBsXORuXgSZ7fME2-HJgkRbGh0Ot12wzkqISl_jgq1Qcfa96H2eIs2wVWixwgOJSt6mGhe4G1n6JOt2VlPOaUSc/s1600-h/MatroyshasLightRed.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 306px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA3Ngmmr_kBsnCwpkts1RV9XZoGmj9EQVCaeGu5_kZm6ancDSF5GMYfBsXORuXgSZ7fME2-HJgkRbGh0Ot12wzkqISl_jgq1Qcfa96H2eIs2wVWixwgOJSt6mGhe4G1n6JOt2VlPOaUSc/s400/MatroyshasLightRed.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342211808877142162" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhg4GifKsbscX261rA-I17KI5tQJCoiCFWHD3FW9rFVyYE5mtoqCyOKUihINOC2wUIhFefwajKUllBdj9UyetW4BQt7f2iG6IpF6GVVWUR_Vo8pzX5-5okEL9PinplEiCCD3-_z0vVFP8/s1600-h/3MagMatroyshka.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhg4GifKsbscX261rA-I17KI5tQJCoiCFWHD3FW9rFVyYE5mtoqCyOKUihINOC2wUIhFefwajKUllBdj9UyetW4BQt7f2iG6IpF6GVVWUR_Vo8pzX5-5okEL9PinplEiCCD3-_z0vVFP8/s400/3MagMatroyshka.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342212039075761138" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiuaZFQxKILZJ-L-DG9GLpG9DHGop2quXnrAvkBF5KFO0sTv7FklZM3hl9k0-ztdJpbYSFNf3yeLd2dKVxutYqRRLmG-fUeULRkKGPP4mNgkwmZAiokx3h8q25SkN4-VM___oQNoiqN9Y/s1600-h/ClaireMatroyshka.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 288px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiuaZFQxKILZJ-L-DG9GLpG9DHGop2quXnrAvkBF5KFO0sTv7FklZM3hl9k0-ztdJpbYSFNf3yeLd2dKVxutYqRRLmG-fUeULRkKGPP4mNgkwmZAiokx3h8q25SkN4-VM___oQNoiqN9Y/s400/ClaireMatroyshka.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342212262733461538" /></a><br /><br />I'm sure there will be more to come shortly.

The audience follows these 3 young magicians on a typical day in their life which turns out to be anything <span style="font-style:italic;">but</span> typical. With a completion deadline in early 2009 this piece combines digital 2D and 3D techniques. <br /><br />As an animator, I am interested in the idea of memory and dream as a powerful tool to communicate emotion and experience. This is the basis on which I constructed 3 Magicians. Instead of telling the story of three children at play in a Georgia back yard, I'm showing the experience of those games and inviting the audience to come along. Even the design of the children is based on Russian Matryoshka dolls I used to play with as a child. Through this film I want to evoke the sense of being closer to the earth, and boundless imagination children posses.Clairehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01362258346709631715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8416945081906506834.post-54450147086586029392008-09-02T22:37:00.000-04:002008-09-02T22:47:22.830-04:00Synopsis<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg50iU_CiAqYy-uRGBlTBf9MBUlZ0-kfHqAcV8lu7f-_l9O7UkaEB63uwI-IO2ZDvkIh1VhMGF4JNy7uImUcJJGaPkxuuByr9HL9Mhkjea7-HMXuzo7QWdQxwNewDJndJv2BJVlDeyhdg8/s1600-h/ChildrenField_web.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg50iU_CiAqYy-uRGBlTBf9MBUlZ0-kfHqAcV8lu7f-_l9O7UkaEB63uwI-IO2ZDvkIh1VhMGF4JNy7uImUcJJGaPkxuuByr9HL9Mhkjea7-HMXuzo7QWdQxwNewDJndJv2BJVlDeyhdg8/s400/ChildrenField_web.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241621169474112578" /></a><br /> In the early light of morning three children open their eyes and meet a day full of magical encounters only the young can experience.
