"I will remember silent walks in

Southern woods and long talks

In low voices

Shielding meaning from the big ears

Of overcurious adults."

This is a father - son collaboration between myself (being the dad) and Bulbasaur 9 (conspicuously the son). This is exciting for us because it is a first and thanks to KnownOrigin and David Moore's great feedback, such pieces will unfold.

Bulbasaur 9 is a young cartoonist, animator and YouTuber in his spare time from school. His shows are on his channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRjLXhHKyBpI813vFvMiMVQ on YouTube.

In our collaborations, B9 is the origination point. He draws and animates on his device and I take his final piece to experiment with. The experimentation goes through blending, retouching, transforming and such. At times, we agree for some experimental animation through GIF applications as well.

Now about these first three collaborations that is being minted..

Scary Red is a drawing of a child sort of engulfed by a dangerous looking yet sympathetic red figure. The collaboration intensified the effect and added other Bulbasaur 9 elements to the fold.

With My Pokemon is a blend of various Bulbasaur 9 drawings accentuated by special filters Hulki Okan Tabak uses on Photoshop.

Sonic Combo 4 is a lot of derivative work on Bulbasaur 9's base Sonic drawing. The starting image has gone through iterative steps and re-blended with the original. Filters and different colors were adapted. Finally a simple animation effect and certain distortions were added. The final Sonic is a new personality altogether.
