COUNTDOWN! But In The Meanwhile...HEY LOOK!

Kurtzman inspired drawings of me for my business card, reel, resume etc. blah blah blah.




I GRADUATE REALLY SOON. More info to come when I have time- it's rush to the finish line! Will she make it? Can she make it? Tune in next time to... Men, Kazoos, Drums and all that hoo-ha.

Well, cause I don't have too many thrills right now, why don't you mosey on over to Katie's blog??? I mean, she's like my hero, and best friend and super talented singing, drawing awesome friend! I rekindled her love of Kurtzman when I told her how excited I was about him- see looooooook!

Making business cards already, huh? Damn, this girl doesn't wait. She wants a job right after graduation!

Is she turning Japanese? Should she work at Rough Draft?

I like these Kurtzman-style drawings of you. What made you decide to evoke that look for the business cards / portfolio, etc.?

HI POP

"Making business cards already, huh?"

I already have business cards- but I was going to swap out the old pic of me with a newer one.

"I like these Kurtzman-style drawings of you. What made you decide to evoke that look for the business cards / portfolio, etc.?"

Thanks Trevor :) I got this Hey Look! book from John the other night, and I've been staring at it since. His compositions are the best!

Colter said...

I agree. Hey Look! is a gem. I seriously never knew about Kurtzman until John's post.

Sean Worsham said...

Congrats Kali,

You earned it :). I love the Kurtzman inspired drawings and I love the life you injected into them. If people have good sense they will hire you just from looking at the cards. ;)

Booo Tooons Ltd. said...

Katie's got some great drawings in that style, too! Boy, when y'all get inspiration, it spreads!

What fun! I thought Harvey was maybe an influence on Mighty Mouse's new design by John, and I guess I was right.

Didn't he also design and draw "Little Annie Fannie" for Playboy? Those were spank-a-licious!

- trevor.

The bottom / last one is rather nice. Yeesh yr good!!

Mad Taylor said...

Kali what's your reel like (if you already have one together)?

Kali Fontecchio said...

Thanks Everybooooody!

"The bottom / last one is rather nice. Yeesh yr good!!"

If you're refering to the veeery bottom- that's Katie's :)

Mad Taylor: I have yet to put it together, not until I finish my thesis will I render it. Right now I'm working on the entrapments and that design stuff.

Mark Stroud said...

Kali those are really cool. That reminds me that I have to redesign my biz cards also.

Mitch said...

I even tried making a gmail account and used that, but even that didn't worked. Weird stuff...

Max Ward said...

After looking at these last night I had a dream with little Kurtzman-Kali's. It was soooo weird!!! At one point there was a little Kurtzman-Kali with giant inflated bulbous breasts!

Jorge Garrido said...

Max = EPIC WIN.

Jorge Garrido said...

Wait, that was probably rude of me to comment on Max's awesome dream and not Kali's drawlings.

After jealously staring at them in amazement... I have one request:

Kali, can I have your hands? Or maybe just some digits?

Or maybe I could rent them out for a low weekly rate...

Kali Fontecchio said...

"After looking at these last night I had a dream with little Kurtzman-Kali's. It was soooo weird!!! At one point there was a little Kurtzman-Kali with giant inflated bulbous breasts!"

I wish they'd hurry up (by they I mean scientists) and figure out how to visually record dreams!

"Kali, can I have your hands? Or maybe just some digits?"

Are you asking for my hand in marriage? I need to see the ring first.

Jorge Garrido said...

"Are you asking for my hand in marriage? I need to see the ring first"

Yeah, I am, but my wife is not going to be happy about this one.

And I need a rich girl, so you're gonna have to buy the rings this time.

Eshniner Forest said...

Love the new title card!! Yeah!!

Mr. Semaj said...

HEY LOOK!

I'm graduating around the same time (May 10th commencement), and this whole semester has been grueling.

(passes out from exhaustion)

hey i have a question and compliment! i tried to your email on your profile but didn't work.

one, does blogger.com have a file hosting place? usually i use photobucket but i noticed yours are not. next, i like the march 25th post! the colors are vibrant yet look as if they've been bleaching in the sun! i like them!

thanks

Jason Miskimins said...

Great drawings! Very fun.

Kali Fontecchio said...

"one, does blogger.com have a file hosting place? "

Yes they do- it's very nice of them.

You're right- those pics do look like they've been bleachin' in the sun!

AAAAAAAAAAron J said...
