I was extremely surprised to hear of such a story line, since I create balloon decorations, when I am not animating. I can't wait to see it on May 29th! I guess my balloon-related story ideas should be thrown out the window now that Pixar got their hands on such a unique story...ARGH....</div><br /><div>Anyways, here are sketches from a balloon seminar I went to. Yes the balloon is a 3ft. balloon, so it is meant to look that big. And yes, there are balloon decorating classes/seminars!!! My favourite one was in Disneyland!</div><div></div><div>Check out the cool portfolio <a href="http://pachaballooncreations.com/">http://pachaballooncreations.com</a> </div><div>Many people can't believe you can make anything out of balloons!</div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2714037101746425390-5530415963679457993?l=venturasketches.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Ellie Venturahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15120948130029982538noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2714037101746425390.post-75205119912589894822009-04-16T21:20:00.001-07:002009-09-21T21:14:11.692-07:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_I799nVcFcus/SegDpx3P4zI/AAAAAAAAAfw/WFVK7P24PNY/s1600-h/colourTest1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325510575660196658" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 299px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_I799nVcFcus/SegDpx3P4zI/AAAAAAAAAfw/WFVK7P24PNY/s320/colourTest1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>just playing around with colour</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2714037101746425390-7520511991258989482?l=venturasketches.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Ellie Venturahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15120948130029982538noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2714037101746425390.post-66176612831317085232009-03-26T21:08:00.000-07:002009-09-21T21:14:31.725-07:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_I799nVcFcus/ScxSSd7pPUI/AAAAAAAAAeY/y8aPvaKr-Ew/s1600-h/shower3A.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317715737243630914" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 242px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_I799nVcFcus/ScxSSd7pPUI/AAAAAAAAAeY/y8aPvaKr-Ew/s320/shower3A.jpg" border="0" /></a> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317715743483221218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_I799nVcFcus/ScxSS1LR1OI/AAAAAAAAAeg/SqRIOGfzsX0/s320/IMG_1248.JPG" border="0" /><br />I created the geisha template for a slide show at my sister's themed bridal shower.
