Holiday Designs

A bit delayed on posting this...

 For the holidays I gave chocolate bars as present this year. I designed the wrapper and made the chocolate! (A bit overachieving one might say...)

I designed the abdominal snowman on a whim, and then thought he'd look great on a candy bar!

Unfortunately I never got a picture of them wrapped :/

Thank You Cards

Last year two of my family members helped me out of a large portion of my student loans. It was insanely generous, and I couldn't thank them enough. So I thanked them the only way I thought I could. Illustrating a thank you card and sending one once a month. 

Here is a preview of Januarys.

The rest are screen caps from last years, forgot to take pictures of them printed out

Flower Pot

Warming up my modeling skills in Maya. Haven't modeled in awhile.

Bunny Hop!

Quick animation I did for fun. I'll add more to it eventually.

Landscape Speed Painting

I've always wanted to try my hand at speed painting. It's such a great warm up, plus I'm growing my knowledge when it comes to colors, lighting, composition, etc. I've started doing them in the morning to get me in the art mode for the day and have been having a blast.

A Cookie Monster

Storyboard project, I may or may not have been eating cookies while creating this....

Emergency Commissions!

Selling cute adorable animals!! In art for of course.

With the holidays rolling in, I'm in need for an extra bit of cash.

Lucky for you I am doing cheap commissions! Above are some examples. You can choose your favorite, random, pet, or make believe animal. 

Unicorns need love too

Perfect gift in time for the holiday!


Commission guidelines, please read before ordering.

Maya Animation Exercises

These were a couple animation exercises I did in Maya. The rigs are pre-made rigs, not mine.

Monster Painting

This was a somewhat spur of the moment project. I had a left over piece of wood from a DIY home project and didn't want it to go to waste. I'm planning on making a series out of this, so stay tuned!

Daily Doodles!

So recently in my free time I've been doing daily doodles. Most people start these things as a resolution for New Years or something, but I figured the middle of October sounded better. Here are a couple from this month. To see the doodles daily be sure to follow me on Twitter -@Hannamations!!

Cookie Fun-Halloween!

Recently my work just released a Halloween version of our Cookie Fun app. I think I enjoyed painting the werewolf assets the most.

If you have an iPad download it today!!

Artsy Fartsy

Just an update of some drawings and doodle I've done lately.

Animation Jam

Recently me and Todd have been doing these "animation jams" the last couple Sunday nights. We think up something to animate then have one hour to do it. Tonight's was a run cycle. Woo!

Hey There Flash...

Run Run Run! from Hannah Benbow on Vimeo.



So I did a previous post of the animation for this, but it was pretty basic. So I added some background and did some compositing in After Effects.

My Inner Thoughts...

I'm absolutely terrified when it comes to dropping things into a boiling pot of water.
