  This is the first official 2021 stop motion doll video. I think I am getting a little better with it. The videos are getting shorter, but only to account for more fluid animation. I hope you find amusing the new attires that the dolls are going to be wearing. I thought this might be a nice change of pace for doll theater. The next week episode is still in the drawing board. Once, I finished brainstorming all my possibilities I will then make the new Stop Motion video. For now, I hope you find this new dolly video amusing.

drawing, video, videos -

I decided to try making some drawing videos again. The set up is a little odd, and the quality needs some work here and there. Still, as long as the drawing video looks decent I will call it a success. Anyhow, in this blog I will show the final product of each of my drawing sessions.

She has a little game called Silksong coming right...

I had the basic...

It has a sleek, charming design. The instrument was created by the Alur folks of Northwestern Uganda. It can have between seven to ten strings. They come in various sizes, and dimensions. The instrument is made of a hollow piece of wood, covered in leather, and woven at the center. It follows a diatonic scale. It can be played alone, or in a group. There is no standardized way...

bell pepper, bjd, garden, photo, photos, vegetable -

Today I harvested my first red bell pepper. I made a commemorative photo of it. This time I waited for the fruit to ripen. Once it was nice and red, I harvested the bell pepper. I pondered a bit on how to use it. In the end, I used it to flavor the spaghetti. The trick is to put it close to the end of the meal. This allows the spaghetti to get the nice flavor of the bell pepper, and it allows for the pepper to retain its texture. Aside from helping with the flavor, the bell pepper can...
