Bloody Martin
My work is always about the strange and unusual. When I draw in my spare time, I love to draw cryptids, monsters, and ghosts, and I wanted my thesis to be no exception. I am always inspired by New England paranormal culture, as this is what I have grown up around. From a haunted lighthouse, to abandoned hospitals that still hold patients' souls, to a woman accused of being a vampire, this to me is New England. A culture dipped in rich horrors. This 2D animated short film is a love letter to the things that go bump in the night.
