The last
Last drawings for the last scenes for “Lipsett diaries”. It is becoming more and more difficult at the end. At the same time – I kind of don’t want to finish it. I never felt so happy, as doing this film. It was a pure exaltation, in every moment – of joy, or grief. A lot of personal things happened during this film. May be even it is not the end with the “happenings”.
May be it will be my last animated film. Turbulence…
It seems I’m disillusioned about the nature of animation. I always thought it was another form of art. May be it is, may be not, don’t know. And this is not a reaction to the last events. I even stopped reading about what is going on. The criticism, as well as the praise is part of the art and the game. If there is not critics, an artist (how pompous this word sounds – hate it!) have really to be in a serious doubt with what he does…
I thought about ending with animation a lot in the last Year… It was punching me in my nose every time when I was going out of my studio, that what I do, is not in the right place, is not where it belongs.
So, that’s it. No harsh feelings. Let Ani the homemaker (remember, who makes homes for animators since 1907), smile.
