Spot in Vöcklabruck by Westpol architects.
Westpol architects created this wonderfully picturesque spot in Vöcklabruck, Austria where visitors are able to sit in the middle of a pond without getting wet. The scenic landscape includes a path leading down to a hollowed out circular area where people can take a seat and relax amongst nature. It’s a surreal journey along the gradual ramp to the observational platform as the water level gains height either side. Once in the resting area, depending on perspective, visitors seem like they’re wading in the lake without a drop of water on them.
What the what!?
oh I wish it was made of glass!

“World of Averages”
Composite images culled from thousands of individual portraits resulting in symmetrical average faces.I had no idea I thought the average Turkish woman was so pretty. Go figure..

Decided to use a puppet of a Haida Wolf. I made him in paper and then decided i wanted to play around in Flash instead. The other drawings are some character development i did in the summer. I wasn’t sure if i wanted to animate the Sea Bear or not. I wanted to continue with the silhouette idea, and see how that could play out to create a story.

So the character is designed after Haida Art, where you don’t see all four legs. What is very prominent is the lack of weight within the character. Also the character design makes it hard to see the body and upper legs. Another is that i had an idea to time the drum beat for the foot, however since the drum is done by hand it’s not particularly constant.I had an idea to create the character look as though it was alone or in solitude, but i never managed to finish the background within a week. The original song is about a chief who gives thanks to a man who saved his daughter from drowning, but the song was so beautiful and seemed perfect for the mood.
