Your Questions About Watercolors Movie
Jun 1st, 2011 by Aldouspi

Betty asks…

What is the name of the artist who does the realistic watercolors of superheroes? ?

He is often hired to do concept drawings for movie adaptions…

Pin-up answers:

Alex Ross is my guess.

Here are some examples of his work:

Donald asks…

Need help identifying a movie?

The movie is very old. It has to be at least 15 years old at this point, maybe even older. I don’t remember much about it, but here are the details:

1. The movie was animated in a very strange paper mache’ style making it resemble a movie watercolor painting.

2. The two main characters were a dog that could change into any animal (I think he was even voiced by the cartoon voice actor for the animted Garfield series). I believe the dog wore glasses, but maybe not. The other main character was a human named Mumford who never talked, dressed in all black, and an Abraham Lincoln hat.

3. The plot involved some sort of golden spring or coil that could control time.

4. In the finale of the movie the Mumford character walked up many flights of stairs, each covered with traps, humorously maiming himself many times.

5. It used to be shown on classic cartoon network.

6. The Animal and the Mumford character had to serve community serve at a garbage dump called the “Garbagery.”

Thank you!!!

Linda asks…

Does anyone know the title of a movie that’s about saving trees done in sort of a watercolor look?

About 6 or 7 years ago, I was in math class towards the end of the year and the teacher put in this movie, I’m not sure about how long it was, but it was about saving trees and it was done in what looked like watercolors. It looked similar to the sketchy/colored pencil look of the movie “The Snowman” by Raymond Briggs based off of his book. I really can’t remember the title and I would like to see it again.

Pin-up answers:

I’m not sure if this is the one you’re talking about, but what jumped to my mind was “The Lorax”. It is a book by Dr. Seuss that was made into a short movie. I’m not sure if that’s the one you want, but I can’t think of any others.

Sandy asks…

How do I paint with a magazine?

i saw it in a realistic fiction movie so i thought it might be a way… I’m wondering cuz it seems a lot better to do that than buy watercolors.
the man had took a magazine… soaked it (or something like that) then scraped the color out and painted with it, I was wondering if this is a possibility and for elaboration on it if it is.

Pin-up answers:

Magazine inks are not water soluble they use a special type of ink, which is not like the ones used in computer printers. The film exaggerated this process just bit. Even if you extract the ink, it will be so little that anyone will have a hard time painting with it.

There is a technique that some artists use in order to print the mirror image of a newspaper directly onto the canvas. They soak the newsprint first in kerosene or lacquer thinner, then press the paper against the canvas, wait for a while, remove the paper and Whoa! Instant print!

But I suggest you buy some watercolors instead. Start with “student quality” paints so it won’t be too expensive. And go for it! :]
