No Preservatives

Recently I've been studying different styles of cartooning. If you turn on the television, you may notice a lot of animation is getting very cheap and mass produced. This isn't the case for everything, there's still quality emerging from time to time, but the majority of American animation is fairly lazy. An older style that has been around since the dawn of cartooning coined as organic is a very fluid, stylized art form that can say a lot more in one image than what the stark and stiff new styles can in an entire movement. My goal is to start to learn this new style. I find it easier to draw in, it's easier to make things look right, suggestive of emotion, and there is more room to express a mood.
