COAT OF SMILES, parody art of iconic symbols. A duck's hat, a mouse's ears and a smiling yellow button. Three iconic things brought together in one artwork.

Alfred J. Kwak

By tomorrow, July 5th 2014, at the Herman van Veen Arts Center, Netherlands, the grant Alfred Jodocus Kwak exhibition will open its doors. In word, sound and vision. It is to be understood as a deep bow of adoration for the late Harald Siepermann's work. I'm glad and thankful for having become a part of this very duck's journeys and I look forward to the things coming up.

Testing

Alfred Jodocus Kwak, some rough warm-up test sketching.


Kwak is such a well designed character, thought up by Dutch singer/writer Hermann van Veen, this very duck was designed and one-of-a-kind visually-deployed by a German dream team of animation artists, the late Harald Siepermann, one of the foremost character designers on this very planet and Hans Bacher, one of the most profiled art directors in the animation business.
