Of all the submissions we received for the coloring book, Conor Finnegan's "bird jogging in sneakers" (second spread) was the first to get our vote of approval. And now he writes in to tell me that he's brought a few of his doodles to life, in a self-made, short animated film created in his spare time and some fooling around with the Adobe After Effects puppet pin tool.

No doubt, my favorite part of the video is the sound and expression of despair from the little worm. Thanks for the smile Conor, keep the fun going.

Here is a great little music video by Archive, the song is called System. I really love all the scribbling and the sassy choreography. Enjoy!

Hi Friends-
I am so so honored and excited to share things with you for the next month. DA has been such a huge source of inspiration to me and I just want to give a shout out to my boy OKAT, thank you so much for this amazing opportunity. I really love DA and all of the great artists that I have been exposed to, inspired by and in awe of since DA's conception.

Walter Robot Studios are the folks behind the new Gnarls Barkley video for "Mystery Man". It's a must see. The video has so much depth. Layers upon layers of drawings that build cities, bicycles, buses and flying super heroes. Go along for the ride.

Besides being a talented artist, Kristofer Ström is most known for his stop-motion doodle videos, where the art comes to life and interacts with everything from plates and picture frames to hands and music. The above is KOBRA episode 6, but every episode is worth taking the time to watch (especially this one).
