Stop Motion Mugs
Description: Inspired by my extensive collection of both traditional and creative Kokeshi, blended with my love of nerd culture, I offer this design inspired by Yetch, Francesca, Baron Boris von Frankenstein, Felix Flankin and Dracula from the 1967 Rankin & Bass stop motion animated film Mad Monster Party in the style of Japanese Kokeshi dolls by myself, Danica Bergagnini.
Description: This comes from a photo I had taken in the backyard a few years back. As I was deciding on which image to select for processing it became clear that “The Hummingbird of Color” was going to be the chosen one and got its chance to begin its transformation and now gets a chance to get out of the file folders and shine for all to see. A stained-glass effect developed through the vector art building process. I wanted a bright, playful stop-motion image of a flying hummingbird to highlight the wings in color and have the bright throat of the bird shine.
