This project focuses on the extract fecundity from the book titled Pilgrim at Tinker Creek by Annie Dillard.

It's about the focuses on the overwhelming abundance and excess of nature.

Charcoal drawing

Initial Experimentation

In this experimentation I used charcoal to create cel like imagery which I thought related a lot to Fecundity.

Tech talk (tactile talk?)

The first step of executing the look I wanted was to rough out cel. I wanted it to feel creeping and molecule like since the story is about reproduction but in a very strange perspective.

thoughts

I hadn't done cel animation since high school so this felt so nostalgic for me. Creating a piece with a creepier look and feel
