My name is Brian, but my username starts with my middle name, Timothy, and ends with my first initial. I only explain since here on a Don Bluth forum the coincidence of looking like Timothy Brisby stands out even more.

I have a love for animation, and have some drawing skills. I got into computers when I was younger, learning Photoshop, so my drawing got neglected I suppose. I feel like I could do a lot more if I work at it.

I've been a graphic artist at my local newspaper since I was 19, now 28. I've done illustrations with Adobe Illustrator as needed and recently been toying with 3D, starting off with Carrara Pro and Hexagon, but just bought Lightwave.

Though, the last couple years newspapers have really been hit hard due to the economy troubles. So there's been less time for illustration and I've been getting rusty, especially as I spent so much time with 3D at home.

I just barely made it through 3 rounds of layoffs and now things are so tight at work I'm making more of an effort to draw at home.

I'm thrilled Don Bluth created such a wonderful site like this and I hope it helps me, and many others. It's very inspiring and I plan to do something for the first competition too.
