I like to relax at night with a spot of sketching. I would like to improve my capacity to render human anatomy accurately. My gesture drawing could be more – gesture-y. The girls and I are resolved to branch out into animation. TVPaint, here we come! (Or is that more than we can manage? We shall see.) The internet is a glorious source of free reference material. Fine books exist, and a few sit on my shelf. But a new site launched today, which looked good enough to make me open my wallet and pay for a yearly subscription. They are having a 50%-off deal, launch day only. And you can look around for free. It’s nicely done. It’s fun to look at.
Or perhaps you prefer vintage 1914 kittens, courtesy of the Library of Congress Flickr feed, celebrating 9-years of Flickr Commons.

Must have been hell getting them in those dresses…

…not to mention the poses.

Yeah, sometimes you can ask someone else living in the house to sort of strike a pose, for reference purposes. But parkour is a bit much.

Hmmmm… “Parkour kitties”, sounds like an idea for an anime series. Kittens with super powers and sparkly costumes.
