Oboy! Oboyoboyoboy! I just received my copy of “The Visitor” and I’m so delighted to share it with you. What do you think?
Be kind, I’m a sensitive artist.

The Frog Princess 😑 "Let them eat kibble".

"May the Fifth be with you". What can I say, it sounded funny in the shower this morning. #starwars #mandalorian #grogu #maythefourthbewithyou

What a thrill it was to work with Guillermo Del Toro on this commercial for Patron! @gdtreal is a director who really appreciates the artists he works with and that makes it all the more gratifying. Here are some sketches I did of the Skeleton Film Crew along with some others I did when I mistakenly thought it would be a period piece based on the work of Posada. (I also threw in a portrait of Del Toro that absolutely no one asked for.) Credit also goes to @guydavis.art whose skeleton designs I was asked to riff on. And finally, many thanks to my very cool nephew Greg de Sève for his photos of the big shot film crew he works with. Salud and happy Cinco de Mayo! #characterdesign #animation #illustration

Dear Animation Studios,
In these burgeoning days of AI and the gradual replacement of human generated, handmade artwork, I thought I might reintroduce myself before the lights finally go out on drawing tables all across the planet. As a genuine, real live carbon based life form I feel I have special insight into what makes a unique and relatable character design. Here are some examples of my work which I hope you will find offer something more than stolen, generic, soulless, internet-scraped mediocrity.
Sincerely yours,
Peter de Sève
