J. Robertson can draw



James Robertson is a young animation artist with a lovely, perceptive style. His blog has the dread title of The Iron Scythe, but the drawings(and it's worth going back into his archives to have a look at as many as possible)are anything but grim. He draws women and men in fast, gestural lines and captures both equally well--but I think his women in particular have an extra dimension of personality--always a treat to see. His animals ain't bad either. He's working on a short of his own at the moment.

Check him out.

Been a fan for sometime. We trade e-mails now and then. He's a real nice guy on top of being a stellar artist. And remarkably humble!

James draws up a storm. He animates not too shabby either. I like this choice of drawings. Will this gal make a run for it? Or will she enjoy the summer shower?
