Florence, Italy

Happy Father's Day!

Wicked

I've always loved the music from Wicked, but I never went to see the musical until a week ago when I went to London! The performance was outstanding, and even better with a British accent! 

So here's a little Wicked fan art :)

Exam time!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hope everyone spent a wonderful Valentine's Day today with their loved ones! 

Self Portrait

First oil painting since high school. It was so much fun to do. 

It's still a work in progress, but here it is for now :)

Hansel & Gretel

Here's a quick Hansel and Gretel I doodled a few weeks back for Tinman Draws. 

Moving to Florence, Italy in a day and a half! Woohoo! :D

School Animals

Hope everyone is having an awesome summer so far! 

Here's a little update: I'm currently working as a freelance animator at Tinman Creative in downtown Toronto. The past Friday Brett and Morghan hosted a super fun TAAFI party in studio, where the personal art of the Tinmen were featured. I decided to do some cute little animals :) Click to see the personal work of the other Tinmen!

 

Happy Birthday Dad!

When I was small I used to get my plastic jewellery all knotted up, and my dad got them untangled every time. When a toy broke, I always went to my dad because there isn't anything he can't fix with a piece of wire and glue. 

My dad taught me to make paper cranes, build a snowman, and how to not suck in a water fight. Although he's not an artist, he took me to art class downtown every weekend for most years of my childhood.  

Thanks for being the most awesomest dad, I love you!

Happy birthday!

POOF

Poof Film from Natan Moura de Aquino on Vimeo.

My group's 3rd year film from last year (2011 / 2012 school year). It was an awesome experience working with my group and I learned a lot.

I was one of the designers along with the talented Gyimah Gariba.

Enjoy and please share! :)

Update: Poof has won Best 2D Animation at the Toronto International Student Animation Festival!

Film Poster

Stay tuned for my film!

Sketches

Hi everyone :) I apologize for the lack of activity on my blog for the past few weeks. It's my final month at Sheridan so things are getting pretty hectic. Here are some sketches I did in the last little while, as usual critiques are welcome and appreciated! :)

I visited Reptilia in Vaughan last week, it's a sweet little zoo with lots of cute critters and very friendly staff. If you don't live too far I highly recommend it as a sketching spot!

 

Yesterday I went sketching with the bestie at McDonald's.

He asked me to draw him as an astronaut :)

I went back to McDonald's today and sketched with the beautiful and talented Seema.

 

Seema found these sketches from my sketchbook that I did in Las Vegas last year, so here they are!

I'd spilt a glass of water on the only Moleskine I've ever owned ;_;
Oh well, back to cheap sketchbooks!

And here's what I wore yesterday, minus the hat :P As the warm weather is coming in I'm wishing I could be on a ranch with some cute cows and Hunter Hayes.

Annnnddd it's now 11:55pm ... Merry Monday Night everyone! :)

Business Cards!

My first ever business cards! Yay! :)

I Heart Bunnies

I like bunnies.

If you've hung out with a bunny before you would know that they like to chew your cords, your shoes, your bags, your books, your pencils and worst of all - they like to snack on the little pink erasers at the top of your pencils. 

I stayed over with my friends Mike and Laura on the weekend, and hung out with their lop, Misu. 

I doodled Guaiguai in my planner a few months ago while I was supposed to be working on my criminology assignment. Eyassu is making me post these too. Guaiguai is a tiny white Polish dwarf. 

I'm just being a ball of goof today.

Film Scene Test!

Good night everyone!

Las Vegas!

Some watercolour sketches from Las Vegas!

Merry Christmas!

Hope you all had an amazing holiday with your family and friends and awesome food :)

Merry Christmas from me and Melly!
