Hello! This is the deal: I'm going to Austria tomorrow, for two weeks. Not on vacation, but to do some design-y stuff for the Swarovski company. They make crystals. Not the kind you dig up out of the ground or find in a mystical cave, but the kind that they glue all over celebrities to make them extra-fancy. So I'll have lots of stuff to show off about Austria when I come back! In the mean time, here are some sketchy-doodles from my sketchy book.
Some kids.
Owls. At one point I thought it would be really cool to draw 100 different owls. Does that sound like a good idea to you?
An unfinished Posieden. I liked where it was going.
Also, I met Walt Peregoy today. If you don't know who that is, then stop reading right now and go find out! He said the Freddie Moore was a drunk, Mary Blair was a drunk, and Marc Davis was a drunk. He also relived a conversation he once had with Milt Kahl:
Walt: I'm glad I don't live next door to you.
Milt: Why is that?
Walt: Because if your house was on fire, I wouldn't so much as piss on it.
He was a very, very irreverent old man. But he had some great stories!
Wish me luck in Austria...it's gonna be cold!

Great stuff!
I really like the owls.
My favorite inappropriate Walt Peregoy comment is his thought about Woolie Reitherman's death: "Even the trees hated him so much, they jumped out in front of his car."
Awesome post brigette! I love the really tall owl who's all hunched over. Have tons of fun in Austria, and bring my back the most powerful crystal you find!
i love your owl designs. :)
I never emailed you about this, but thanks so much for showing us around in august! Are you going to visit calarts sometime? Have a good time in austria!
your owls are awesome.
Walt Peregoy! Holy crap. That's awesome. I live in Atlanta and my best hope to maybe run into the "Harvey Birdman" team. Your work is really great. I can't wait to see more.
Oh snap! Watch out Brigette, I hear they eat a lot of meat in Austria. But I'm sure you can handle it, after your Japan trip. Have fun! Tell Sean I say hi and tell him to climb some alps for me.
I've been going through an owl phase recently...or rather, I've just begun my owl phase... I love their design potential. These look fantastic.
Have fun in Austria.
Wonderful sketches!:)
Brigette. I would like to do a portrait of you and sean. NOT TOGETHER. So take a self portrait, you, sean. A profile and a 3/4 angle. Take a few actually, email it to me okay? Sean has my email. DO IT SOON! Its for a gallery show in january.
Jeez, Peregoy's still alive! I admire his artwork but he sounds like an asshole!! Good luck in Austria-
Alright missy, it's been over a month since we were last updated. Where are you?
