Moses casts down his staff, and it becomes a snake! Continue reading Miracles and Wonders For your insomniac counting pleasure: Was Moses a shepherd or a goatherd? I now have both sheep and goats for Seder-Masochism. The sheep design I made a few years ago; the goat I made this week. I much prefer it to this goat design from 2012 (which was just rehashed from Agni’s mount in Sita Sings the Blues):
There’s also this embroidermation goat I designed for the all-embroidermated Chad Gadya section of Seder-Masochism, still to be photographed: That’s 3 goats I’ve designed so far, for one movie. I’m only going to use the most recent 2. Continue reading Sheep and Goats A few design refinements. Yes my biblical goat looks a little like a gazelle. I like gazelles. Continue reading Walking Goats Yet another goat design for Seder-Masochism. Oh look I’ve already modified it: This goat is even simpler. Continue reading Goats …but we probably didn’t look this hot: Character designs for male and female Hebrew slaves for Seder-Masochism. Yes I grossly exaggerate contrasting male and female traits like shoulders, hips and waists. It’s a cartoon. These guys are on a 27-frame cycle because that’s the closest beat to the song I’m using. Continue reading “we were slaves in Egypt” When I told a (gentile) friend I was making a movie about the Seder, she thought I said “satyr.” The idea cracked me up, but I didn’t illustrate it because who needs more associations of Jews with horns and cloven hooves? Until now. Here is the Passover Satyr. I was worried this was in questionable taste. Too soon? But after posting this illustration on Facebook, so many people asked for a T-shirt that I set one up for pre-orders here. You have until November 3 to order one.

To illustrate this for an upcoming talk I drew a holy grail as a single-line drawing. I did this by hand in Flash, and made this simulation of a simulator by deleting line segments one at a time. I would love a program that intelligently automatically converts my line art into single-line art. Theo made something like that already, which preserves all the line segments and relies on back-tracking. But I’d also like something that replicates what I did here by hand: removing and adding small line segments so no back-tracking is needed. It Continue reading The holy grail of quilting design Hopefully an improvement on my previous Burning Bush design which I made a few years ago. The new design can do this: Continue reading Burning Bush redux |
