Hey guys-
I'm curating a wicked illustration/animation gallery show here in NY on the 28th. Check it out if you're in the neighborhood... Lots of great animation artists in this one!
Press Release:
Shady Characters are everywhere in every city &
suburb. Whether it be the nutjob on the subway, or
that weirdo guy w/ the front-butt at the office, shady
characters always manage to find their way in to our
every day lives. "Shady Characters" is simply a
tribute to all of the creepers and tweakers, outcasts
and outlaws, and freaks and geeks, we encounter daily.
As much as they creep us out, they equally fascinate
us... but don't make eye contact... you don't want to
stare! It's Live With Animals mission to bring all of
these weirdos in to one room at one time & put 'em on
display for your viewing pleasure. Now you can feel
free to stare as long as you want! And if one of these
freakazoids tickles your fancy, for the right price,
you may even be able to take him/her/it home with you!
Contributing to the show are some real heavyweights in
the animation/illustration community. Not just New
Yorkers in this one folks... we'll be displaying
artists from both coasts & even a few of our good
Canadian friends will be joining in the fun! Amazing
talents including... Gabe Swarr, Rex Hackelberg, Anna
Chambers, Deanna Marsigliese, Clio Chiang, Steve
Lambe, Mark Ackland, Todd Kauffman, Joel Trussell,
Bobby Chiu, Martin Wittig, Aaron Augenblick, Phil
Rynda, Peter Browngardt, Danny Kimanyen, Randy Ramos
(otherwise known as Ranny), Jamie Mason, Chris George,
Tim Shankweiler, Eric Brown of "Shorties watchin
Shorties" fame, Mark Pecoraro, Pat Pakula, Kevin Schmid,
