I am going through this one very quickly, I think I used up half of it in a week… I did this page while watching Happy feet 2 with my son, Aryaman; I was just getting into the flow when naturally he too had to get inspired right then.

These were done watching NewMastersAcademy videos, Danny Galieote, Glen Vilppu, Sheldon Borenstein:
