a little late treehouse



I've spent the past week driving and flying willy-nilly all up and down the west coast, so I'm afraid this is a bit late, but I had lots of fun doing it! While sketching I was thinking of the treehouse as a sort of religious structure, with a holy person living up in the heights and lower disciples or secular farmers tending the shade-grown crops growing around the foot of the tree.

And I guess introductions are in order: I'm Bridget Underwood, a student of 2D animation. As much as I love the craft of it, I really just want to be a storyteller, and I think animation is one of the most beautiful ways out there to tell a story :)

  2. This is beautiful, Bridget! I really enjoy the movement in the composition, the colors, and how simply you handled the leaves.

  3. Oh, and I love that yellow light from the sun that highlights the red tree. Maybe if you used yellow to highlight the foreground elements, the piece would have more unity?
